Ludwig Wittgenstein once said: 'I am not a religious man, but I cannot help seeing every problem from a religious point of view.' This study, the last work of the distinguished philosopher Norman Malcolm, is a discussion of what Wittgenstein may have meant by this and its significance for philosophy. The book concludes with a critical discussion of Malcolm's essay by Peter Winch.
This is Malcolm's last work before his death. It draws together a wide collection of Wittgenstein's comments on religion. Peter Winch concludes with a critical essay on Malcolm's interpretation of Wittgenstein's philosophy.
