Philosophical Investigations
Philosophical Investigations
is a highly influential work by the 20th-century
philosopher
Ludwig Wittgenstein
. In it, Wittgenstein discusses numerous problems and puzzles in the fields of
semantics
,
logic
,
philosophy of mathematics
,
philosophy of psychology
,
philosophy of action
, and the
philosophy of mind
. He puts forth the view that conceptual confusions surrounding
language
use are at the root of most philosophical problems, contradicting or discarding much of what he argued in his earlier work, the
Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus
.
