The Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (Logical Philosophical Treatise or Treatise on Logic and Philosophy) is the only full-length philosophical book by the Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein that was published during his lifetime. The goal of the work is to identify the relationship between language and reality and to define the limits of science. He famously summarized the book in the following way: "What can be said at all can be said clearly; and what we cannot talk about we must pass over in silence."

I have enjoyed this program. It is nice to listen to the text of this classic in philosophy. We should support these readings so there will be more in the future.

I can't said only a one word and it's wow! Just read it and your life could change. Who living in the present lives forever, said Ludwig Wittgenstein. There's so many golden nuggets in this book.. Thank You for you Ludwig Wittgenstein this book! It was one of the best book what I ever read.

This book is pure gold

The book is good. The reader's voice is good. But there are many words that she just cannot read. Among the most astonishing and repeated errors is confusing "causality" with "casualty." Yikes!

misreadings disrupt the meaning of the work

This is the best reading of TLP but the narrator mispronounces words or says something totally different. It was fine until until 32:34 when she exclaims something midread. A very odd production that can be used as a way to get through Wittgenstein but don't listen to it by itself. The text is already dense.

Ummm...

This audiobook is Good for getting a general idea of what Wittgenstein was saying but is probably not the best way to do a detailed of Wittgenstein. The logical proofs formulas made no sense to me in audio form but his thesis was clear and interesting.

This is a great read for fans of philosophy, but the recording has about 4 outtakes that the editors missed. The narrator doubles back, so the listener doesn't miss any text, but the recording flubs are still in there. They start about halfway through.

Great read, recording needs editing

no excuse for the narrator to so badly mispronounce frege and wittgenstein! also random background noises

Poor Narration

There is too much symbolic logic and notation to make this an enjoyable audio book to no fault of the narrator. The material would be much easier understood read off a page.
