This provocative study exposes the ways in which Wittgenstein's philosophical views have been misunderstood, including the failure to recognize the reductionist character of Wittgenstein's work. Cook goes on to show how these misunderstandings have had grave consequences for philosophy at large, and proposes that amore subtle appreciation of linguistic philosophy can yield valuable results.
