Wittgenstein

Opening Investigations

In this provocatively compelling new book, Michael Luntley offers a revolutionary reading of the opening section of Wittgenstein’s Philosophical Investigations

• Critically engages with the most recent exegetical literature on Wittgenstein and other state-of-the-art philosophical work
• Encourages the re-incorporation of Wittgenstein studies into the mainstream philosophical conversation
• Has profound consequences for how we go on to read the rest of Wittgenstein’s major work
• Makes a significant contribution not only to the literature on Wittgenstein, but also to studies in philosophy of language
