Abstract
|
:
|
"Wittgenstein is widely considered to be amongst the greatest of modern philosophers. He both revolutionised the subject of philosophy and made a profound impact on many disciplines across the spectrum of the humanities and the social sciences. In this book Nigel Pleasants examines Wittgenstein's influence on, and implications for, contemporary social and political theory."--BOOK JACKET. "It will provide an important new perspective for researchers and students of social sciences in general, political science, philosophy, social and political theory, and sociologists."--Jacket
