US and European scholars of philosophy offer a variety of new ways to look at German philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein's (1889-1951) Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, including approaches from Continental European philosophy and links to the thinking of Kant, Schopenhauer, Kierkegaard, and others. Among their topics are logic and ethics as the limits of the world, the extent to which solipsism is a truth, making sense of nonsense, an example of saying and showing from Anscombe, transcendence and contradiction, and onto-logic. One of the ten essays is reprinted. Annotation :2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
