Description: "This book explains how Wittgenstein's idea of the value of philosophy shaped his philosophical method and led him to talk and write about the abstruse questions he dealt with in most of his work. Unlike many books, it examines not only the Tractatus and Philosophical Investigations, but also Wittgenstein's work on epistemology, ethics and religion. This book shows for the first time the real connections between Wittgenstein the man and Wittgenstein the philosopher."--Jacket.
