Ashok Vohra applies Wittgenstein's method to show that the problem has arisen through a tendency to over-philosophise our simple experiences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVohra presents a positive account of Wittgenstein's philosophy of mind, arguing that to consider his philosophy entirely destructive is misleading. He shows that knowledge of mind is gained through a large complex of intersubjectively identifiable factors such as the linguistic and non-linguistic past, present and future behaviour of the person concerned. He thus justifies the belief, on which psychology and psychoanalysis are based, that mind is not a mystery to which only the owner has privileged access.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ashok Vohra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138024473\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138024472\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.38d","brand":"Ashok Vohra","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48136509587711,"sku":"9781138024472","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_483808db-5674-4ce2-95df-339411ffd809.jpg?v=1770163130","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wittgensteins-philosophy-of-mind-routledge-ashok-vohra-9781138024472","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
