* The accompanying Part II: Exegesis §§1-184 - has been thoroughly revised in the light of the electronic publication of Wittgenstein's Nachlass, and includes many new interpretations of the remarks, a history of the composition of the Philosophical Investigations and an overview of its structure.
* The revisions will ensure that this remains the definitive reference work on Wittgenstein's masterpiece for the foreseeable future
