For a Limited Audience,
This review is from: The Unity of Wittgenstein's Philosophy: Necessity, Intelligibility, and Normativity (Suny Series in Philosophy) (Paperback)
Published in 2002, The Unity of Wittgenstein's Philosophy by Jose Medina examines the development of Wittgenstein's thought from the Tractatus to the Philosophical Investigations.
Despite the writing being a bit awkward the book does a solid job of presenting the chronological development of Wittgenstein thoughts regarding a range of concepts including language games and rule following. Indeed, I found the book somewhat helpful in clarifying and connecting different aspects of Wittgenstein's work. That said, the publisher's claim that Medina exposes the myth of two Wittgenstein's is overstated marketing hyperbole. Overall, although not a bad effort, I think the book has a fairly limited audience. On the one hand a level of background knowledge is required for the text to be of interest. While on the other hand, a detailed knowledge of Wittgenstein makes it redundant. |
