Each numbered remark in Wittgenstein’s text is systematically analysed. Hacker’s thoughtful, rigorous commentary clarifies problematic expressions, phrases, and sentences, and elaborates source remarks in Wittgenstein’s \u003ci\u003eNachlass\u003c\/i\u003e that shed light on the text, illustrating their bearing on deep philosophical problems.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis volume of exegesis of §§243-427 has been extensively revised, incorporating numerous references to original and secondary texts of Wittgenstein that were not known to exist in 1990.The second edition features new comprehensive tables of correlation between the remarks of the \u003ci\u003eInvestigations\u003c\/i\u003e and the source of the remarks in the \u003ci\u003eNachlass,\u003c\/i\u003e and addresses a variety of controversies from the last quarter of a century concerning the private language arguments, the nature of thought and imagination, consciousness, and the self, settling them explicitly or implicitly in the new exegesis. All references to Wittgenstein’s text have been adjusted to the revised fourth edition, although page references to the first and second editions have been retained in parentheses. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese revisions bring the book up to the high standard of the extensively revised editions of \u003ci\u003eWittgenstein: Understanding and Meaning \u003c\/i\u003e(Blackwell 2005) and\u003ci\u003e Wittgenstein: Rules, Grammar and Necessity \u003c\/i\u003e(Wiley Blackwell, 2009).
