"For years Wittgensteinian philosophers have wanted to see a movement away from exegesis toward the application of Wittgenstein's way of dealing with problems to new areas. Wilson's book promises to make a contribution to this effort. The book is blazing a trail of its own, which is its great strength. To the extent that Wilson has not only been a pioneer but also got Wittgenstein right, this is an excellent achievement." --Duncan Richter, Virginia Military Institute "Sean Wilson's new book offers some of the clearest insights into Wittgenstein's later thoughts that I have come across. By clearly explaining three facets of Wittgenstein's problem-solving "therapy," Wilson is able to neatly put important--but often confusing--ideas into a coherent and helpful form. I highly recommend this book to any reader, not just the career philosopher. It may just change the way you view the world.

" --Ian Bartrum, William S. Boyd School of Law, UNLV "In his book Sean Wilson has devoted himself to an important task rarely undertaken by Wittgenstein scholars: rather than limiting himself to interpreting Wittgenstein's thought or bringing it to bear on philosophical problems, he has explored ways in which Wittgenstein's insights can be employed in the clarification of many kinds of intellectual entanglements, within various academic disciplines, in legal argument, political and cultural debate and everyday interchange." --Lars Hertzberg, Åbo Akademi University.
