How to Read Wittgenstein [antikvár]

viii SERIES EDITOR'S FOREWORD and so on. The books in the How to Read series don't claim to tell you all you need to know about Freud, Nietzsche and Darwin, or indeed Shakespeare and the Marquis de Sade, but they do offer the best starting point for further exploration. Unlike the available second-hand versions of the minds that have shaped our intellectual, cultural, religious, poUtical and scientific landscape. How to Read offers a refreshing set of first-hand encounters with those minds. Our hope is that these books will, by turn, instruct, intrigue, embolden, encourage and delight.
