  Synopsis Details Reviews  
Monk's energetic enterprise is remarkable for the interweaving of the philosophical and the emotional aspects of Wittgenstein's life' Sunday Times. 'Ray Monk's reconnection of Wittgenstein's philosophy with his life triumphantly carries out the Wittgensteinian task of "changing the aspect" of Wittgenstein's work, getting us to see it in a new way' Sunday Telegraph. 'This biography transforms Wittgenstein into a human being' Independent on Sunday. 'It is much to be recommended' Observer. 'Monk's biography is deeply intelligent, generous to the ordinary reader...It is a beautiful portrait of a beautiful life' Guardian.
