description: FIRST EDITION VERY GOOD softcover, free tracking number, clean NEW text, solid binding, NO remainders NOT ex-library, smoke free; slight gentle shelfwear / storage-wear; WE SHIP FAST. Carefully packed and quickly sent. 201607245 This is a fun and light approach to one of the more difficult and obscure philosophical works of the early 20th century. Although the Tractatus has a reputation of being difficult, this book shows that, underneath the surface of Wittgenstein's aphoristic and obtuse language, there is a relatively simple line of thought. Mounce makes a lot of sense of Wittgenstein's attractive but very difficult to comprehend magnum opus. Mounce studied with one of W's literary executors, so it is likely that his interpretation is close to the "correct" one. Presumes no previous knowledge of philosophy or logic. All in all a fantastic resource. Please choose Priority / Expedited shipping for faster delivery. (No shipping to Mexico, Brazil or Italy.)
