Notebooks, 1914-1916

Summary: Insight into the Early Wittgenstein
Review: This book shows well the development of Wittgenstein's early thought. It is easier to see where his influences effected his thought. The metaphysical nature of his early thinking and his debt to Schopenhauer are clearer in this text than they are in any other. I have substracted one star only because I prefer his later thinking, and these notes, as the title states, are only from 1914 through 1916.
