The Routledge Handbook of Wittgenstein and Other Philosophers: Part 2

The Routledge Handbook of Wittgenstein and Other Philosophers: Part 2 examines the impact and influence of Wittgenstein's thought on some of the most significant philosophers of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, as well as major thinkers from related disciplines such as economics and politics. Ludwig Wittgenstein left an indelible footprint on contemporary philosophy and his influence is incredibly rich and wide-ranging. However, the interpretation or understanding of Wittgenstein’s views - both his early views and his late views - is exceedingly fraught and contentious. How has Wittgenstein's thought been received by contemporary philosophers? How has it shaped the thinking of some of the leading philosophers of the post-war period?

Moore, Carl Hempel, Iris Murdoch, B.F. Skinner, Friedrich Hayek, Thomas Khun, Philippa Foot, Richard Wollheim and Jurgen Habermas.
