Retrieving Realism

Engaged with three books including Philip Kitcher’s The Nature of Mathematical Knowledge it amazed me how I find reference to Wittgenstein’s On Certainty to be of absolute importance.

Investigation into the nature of knowledge

On face value, On Certainty is a surprisingly accessible Wittgenstein text, exploring the notions of epistemology and scepticism or \"knowing\" and \"doubting\", however, the work, on closer examination, cleverly argues these positions in the epistemological tradition from clearly different perspectives, thus On Certainty is more complex than it appears.

My favorite Wittgenstein

\"On Certainty\" represents a much more honed work than the more common \"Philosophical Investigations,\" though the depth of its insights are no less than than that work.
