VISION OF WITTGENSTEIN by Henry Finch

This series offers the core teachings of the world's greatest philosophers. Each volume extracts the essential ideas of a major thinker in a way that brings these ideas to life and makes them accessible. This book explores Ludwig Wittgenstein's approach to the issues of meaning, understanding, and language in a genuinely new way and argued powerfully that we need 'a new way of looking' much more than we need new knowledge. It explores the time in which he was making these radical suggestions and what affect it had on the world of philosophy.
Henry Le Roy Finch was a graduate of Yale University and holder of doctorate from Columbia University, New York City. He taught philosophy for twenty years at Sarah Lawrence College and for another twenty years at CCNY. His other books on this subject are Wittgenstein: The Early Philosophy - An Exposition of the "Tractatus" and Wittgenstein: The Later Philosophy - An Exposition of the "Philosophical Investigations".
