Wittgenstein: Rethinking the Inner

Wittgenstein: Rethinking the Inner
By Paul Johnston

The idea of the inner is central to our conception of a person and is at the heart of all interaction. But how should we understand this concept, and what do we mean when we wonder what is going on inside our heads? This accessible and non-technical guide to Wittgenstein provides insight into his work in this area and on the problem of the inner. Using Wittgenstein's recently published writings on the philosophy of psychology, together with unpublished material, Paul Johnston presents a thorough account of a subject that was central to Wittgenstein's later work. He shows that Wittgenstein's arguments involve a radical re-thinking of our understanding of the inner and present a challenge to contemporary views which has yet to be fully appreciated or understood. "Wittgenstein" demonstrates how a Wittgensteinian approach can dissolve age-old problems about the nature of consciousness and the relationship between the mind, the body, and the soul. The resulting picture of the inner, with its stress on the crucial role of language, sheds light on the direction of Wittgenstein's work and presents a stimulating and controversial alternative to more fashionable positions on the subject.

"Tell them I've had a wonderful life." Wittgenstein

Deleuze & Guattari - Anti-Oedipus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia

Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari
Preface by Michel Foucault
Translated by Robert Hurley, Mark Seem, and Helen R. Lane

The authors combine elements of the work of Marx, Freud, and Nietzsche to develop a political analysis of desire as it is repressed or expressed in Western culture.

"This is a major philosophical work, by perhaps the most brilliant philosophical mind at work in France today. It is both trendy and technically difficult; it has an interesting cross-resonance with the American counter-culture. There are brilliant and suggestive treatments here of the psychological subject, fascism, repression, collective fantasy, which are quite unequalled elsewhere." —Fredric Jameson

"This book must be read, regardless of its style and complexity. It is relevant to about every sociological orientation, not only within Marxism, and to every specialty within our discipline." —Contemporary Sociology

"Anti-Oedipus, more than any other intersection of Marx and Freud, renders palpable the metaphor of the unconscious as a worker, and does it in a brilliant, appropriately nutty way." —New Republic
