Wittgenstein in a nutshell

[Nehru]

Can someone be kind enough to explain W in brief, point by point? He's hard to read, plus there are so many views and I dont have time. Is there someone knowledgeable who can present something about W?

Thanks in advance.

I find this (http://www.roangelo.net/logwitt/) an accessible explanation. At least it's devoid of the overwhelming arrogance that I have so often found in association with Wittgenstein supporters.

Another take can be found here (http://forums.philosophyforums.com/threads/wittgenstein-a-summary-41631.html); it is perhaps more complicated, but also more complete and perhaps somewhat deeper. Anyway, it mostly deals with explaining Wittgenstein, instead of pretending that it is obvious and only imbeciles can fail to get it.

And, of course, steer away from Ms. Lichtenstein unreadable rants.
