Recensioner i media

“This is a book that needed to be written and is well worth the effort to digest in full. … it is an important contribution to Wittgenstein scholarship in its own right and pays careful attention to the field of psychology in a manner that no other book-length treatment of Wittgenstein to my knowledge has done … . Readers with a particular interest in developmental and evolutionary psychology will also be richly rewarded.” (Timothy P. Racine, Theory & Psychology, Vol. 30 (4), 2020)
