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>

评分去资料室找弗雷格的资料却无意间在书架上发现了找了好久的《维特根斯坦的拨火棍》。想读它的原因十分直接，我是W的迷恋者。 要说《拨火棍》的作者是记者是个大好事，记者让我想起了狗仔，狗仔让我想起了八卦，八卦让我想起了W打喷嚏的样子，显然，这本书那么有趣就是因为它知...
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...
评分无意间看到了这本书，也在同时意识到自己很久很久没有精心去看一本书，甚至精心做一些事了。最想的就是能安安宁宁的有些简单的快了，做些简单的事，看点自己喜欢的东西...真的是好久好久没有了。 维特根斯坦，呵呵，看到就兴奋了。历史，哲学，传记...看着就来劲了，不管如...
