Incorporating significant editorial changes from earlier editions, the fourth edition of Ludwig Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations is the definitive en face German-English version of the most important work of 20th-century philosophy

  • Footnoted remarks in the earlier editions have now been relocated in the text
  • What was previously referred to as ?Part 2? is now republished as Philosophy of Psychology ? A Fragment, and all the remarks in it are numbered for ease of reference

  • Now features new essays on the history of the Philosophical Investigations, and the problems of translating Wittgenstein?s text
