About
Shanker exposes the confusions underlying the currently prevailing interpretations of Wittgenstein. He shows how such approaches and their underlying critical frameworks are incapable of coming to terms with Wittgenstein s arguments in the philosophy of mathematics. This book explains not only Wittgenstein s approach, which was justly heralded as causing a turning point in the philosophy of mathematics, but also the philosophy of mathematics in general."
