User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐In a nutshell – Philosophy is pointless (in the literal sense). Please do try to solve the riddle of life (ie human existence) – because, in the end, nothing is provable. Say what you will – at the end of the day, no matter how literate, how erudite, how convincing, how eloquent, we are simply guessing – there is NO proof of God nor proof that God does not exist either. As for the Big Bang Theory, so beloved by Stephen Hawking, even he concedes we know not what preceded it. But try we must and try we shall – ad nauseam – and it will provide for entertainment & intellectual stimulus but we do not have the capacity to know. This is not exactly Wittgenstein… BUT… you can’t make a car fly. You can make it better. You can make it faster, smoother, more comfortable, possibly endlessly so, but you cannot make it fly. Once you ‘do’ it is no longer a car. It is a hybrid. This is the extent of man’s philosophical capacity. We are simply not built to actually know (the answer to the ultimate question). We can expand & intensify but we cannot ‘know’ … most likely, ever.

⭐Brillant, summarizes all of philosophy by contradicting himself. Read Hegel next.

⭐Just wanted to warn you all that the free Kindle version of this text has quite a few scanning errors in it that were not caught by an editor. If this especially annoys you, you might want a paid version.As for the actual work in question…it’s not my cup of tea.

⭐Bare bones, basic and completely without frills, but an excellent way to get one of the twentieth century’s most important works of philosophy for free. As for the work itself, even if one is not into philosophy, the Tractatus is a mind-expanding, deceptively challenging book. You can read through it I an afternoon but take a lifetime to understand. No excuses.

⭐I’m not entirely sure what the editors (if, in fact, there were any at all) were doing when they printed this translation. Beginning in the introduction by Mr. Bertrand Russel, this philosophical inquiry is riddled with numerous typos, grammatical faux pas, and syntactical blunders. Another reviewer has already called attention to this, but thinking it was only a few understandable errors here and there, I purchased the book.The foundation of Wittgenstein’s Logic is that language is inherently imperfect in conveying an absolute philosophical meaning; our attempt at organizing ideas and thought into language is flawed at a surface level. It certainly doesn’t help when basic readability is forfeit to poppycock printing. Now, I would be rating this 1 star if it wasn’t so comically ironic.*2 stars. Speaking strictly on the product, not Mr. Wittgenstien.

⭐Everybody should read this book. High school students and college grads. This book shows the power of logic, the force of intuition, the perfect internal consistency of this work, the clarity of thought, the depth of meditation.

⭐Arguably the greatest philosopher of the 20th century, Wittgenstein revolutionizes the very way we do philosophy in this slim volume. Time will tell, but this author may likely take his place in the pantheon of Descartes, Kant, Hegel and Heidegger.

⭐I love this piece of work so much. It is both logic yet abstract and I use it as a reference to write essay to come up with great ideas. It is beautiful.

⭐Straight forward – honest words.Philosophy on a serious diet. I think this should be the first philosophical/religious book children read..

⭐I did not realise that the book was reprint and not an orginial publication. Nothing wrong otherwise, but it does raise questions of reliability of the book because we do not know if it has been through an editors hand.

⭐OK

⭐En la descripción decía que el idioma era español, pero cuando llegó en realidad era en inglés.Interessante a dir poco, da non perdere, anche per i non filosofi. Pagine tra le più profonde mai scritte , Pagine anche :. “non scritte”.
