This book offers an introduction to the thought of Ludwig
Wittgenstein (1889-1951). Wittgenstein's life in its earlier and
later periods is considered in chapters that interleave the reviews
of the philosophy of language set out in Tractatus
Logico-Philosophicus (1921) and Philosophical Investigations
(1953). Later chapters discuss Wittgenstein's approach to
philosophy and to thinking about religion and ethics. Along the way
key ideas on philosophy, and relevant lines of argument that
contribute to Wittgenstein's intellectual development are
explained. In considering Wittgenstein's thought, the ideas of
Bertrand Russell, G E Moore and A N Whitehead, amongst others, are
taken in account, and prior to the review of Wittgenstein's
approach to ethics the relevant background to ethical thought is
discussed.
