Philosophical Investigations

Structure and Organization

Ludwig Wittgenstein's «Philosophical Investigations» is a collection of notes covering various topics in the philosophy of language and thought. The investigations consist of a series of remarks, divided into numbered sections, which are not always consistent in theme or argumentation. The author reflects on the nature of language, logic, mathematics, and the mind, often drawing on examples from everyday life to illustrate his ideas. The book lacks a clear linear structure, allowing readers to choose their own paths through the text based on the questions or topics that interest them.
