Description

Explore the profound philosophical critiques of Ludwig Wittgenstein in this specialized collection from Routledge. This book provides the first dedicated study of Wittgenstein's anti-scientism, a theme that remains central to his work despite being largely ignored in previous literature. By examining his views on the overestimation of science, readers gain a deeper understanding of his core philosophical aims. This text examines the foundations of Wittgenstein's opposition to scientism and how these ideas shaped his later conception of philosophy. It offers a clear look at the specific types of philosophy he attacked and provides context for his broader intellectual contributions. This volume is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the history and philosophy of science, offering a fresh perspective on a neglected aspect of one of the most influential thinkers of the twentieth century.
