The author presents Wittgenstein's Investigations in a radically new light using short sections to clarify the main arguments, including the famous Private Language Argument. This is accomplished through the author's extremely clear and accessible writing style, bringing a new clarity to a reputedly difficult work. The author demonstrates the continuing importance of Wittgenstein's ideas to contemporary debates in cognitive linguistics and psychology UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9780585069821 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9780585069821 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9780585069821/original ER -
