On October 25,1946, in a crowded room in Cambridge, England, Ludwig Wittgenstein and Karl Popper came face-to-face for the first and only time. The encounter lasted just ten minutes, and did not go well.</p>Their loud and aggressive confrontation became the stuff of instant legend. Almost immediately, rumors spread around the world that the two great philosophers had come to blows, armed with red-hot pokers.</p>Twenty years later, when Popper wrote an account of the incident, he portrayed himself as the victor, provoking intense disagreement. Everyone present seems to have remembered events differently.</p>What really happened in those ten minutes? And what does the violence of this brief exchange tell us about these two men, modern philosophy, and the significance of language in solving our philosophical problems?</p>Wittgenstein's Pokeris an engaging mix of philosophy, history, biography. and literary detection. David Edmonds and John Eidinow evoke with dazzling clarity the tumult of fin-de-siÈcle Vienna, Wittgenstein's and Popper's birthplace; the tragedy of the Nazi takeover of Austria; and Cambridge University, with its eccentric set of philosophy dons, including Bertrand Russell, who acted as umpire at the meeting. At the center of the story stand the two philosophers themselves -- proud, irascible, larger-than-life -- and spoiling for a fight.</p>

评分Great book. I first saw comments on Popper's philosophical ideas and their significant impact on modern politics and business world in the bestseller "The Black Swan". Then I found this book, very well recommended, about an epic debate between two of the gr...
评分当作茶余饭后的闲书读来还是挺有意思的。从这两个人的冲突和争论中了解他们的家庭背景，和那个时代整个哲学的大体状况也是个不错的选择。感觉这本书的涉及面还是比较广的。
评分其实纯粹是冲着副标题上赫然写着的“两个大哲学家十分钟争吵的故事”去看的，而书中轻描淡写的过了。 作者更倾向于按历史角度写一部客观公正的八卦，正因为如此，此书变成了一部记录了一整个时代的史书和启蒙型书籍：近代科学史，维也纳小组，剑桥，反犹，世界大战，文明中心...
