Reader comments
This "Biography of Wittgenstein" is very good! The author Jiang Yi's writing style is vivid and depicts Wittgenstein's life very vividly. I think it is a bit like "The Biography of Steve Jobs", which shows the life of the legendary figure through in-depth research and interviews. Also, this reminds me of a friend of mine who is also interested in philosophy and I would definitely recommend it to him. This book is not only suitable for philosophy lovers, but also allows ordinary readers to have a deeper understanding of philosophy and philosophers.
From the perspective of biographies, the life stories and general thoughts of the characters are introduced. But if you want to learn some ideas or wisdom that are in line with modern people, it is better to read the textbook.
Good, good, good
Wittgenstein, the philosopher with aristocratic morals
