This is Volume II of five in a series on Epistemology and Metaphysics. Originally published in 1955, this text has main areas: that change which has come over philosophy as we have come to realize how very strange philosophical questions are and presents a certain new view of philosophy and its associated new philosophical procedure; second, it presents typical philosophical disputes and illustrates the new procedure, asking what has led philosophers to say the extraordinary things they have said. At this stage the study aims to carry this inquiry only far enough to reveal some of the confusions, excuses and reasons behind philosophical doctrines. Finally, the inquiry is carried further and submits that there are often causes for adherence to a philosophical theory, deeper than those which appear when we ask the reasons for the theory. In illustration of this it ventures in outline a surmise as to one of the deeper sources which lie behind the old and phoenix-like paradox ‘Change is unreal’.

First published in 2002. This book carries on the work of The Structure of Metaphysics and Studies in Metaphilosophy. Setting out to construct a hypothesis which would explain both the nonexistence of stable results in one of the oldest of the intellectual disciplines, this title then applies the hypothesis to basic and representative problems in the major branches of philosophy. Lazerowitz describes the constant motivation of this book as 'to improve our understanding of philosophy; an enigmatic, if time-honoured, subject'.

First Published in 1964, Studies in Metaphilosophy presents and develop the hypothesis about the nature of metaphysical theories. Each study is a fresh attempt to improve our understanding of what a philosophical theory is and what its supporting arguments come to. Author argues that philosophical theories are nothing more substantial than linguistic chimeras and has the important function of pointing up the need for the examination of the whole subject. The volume discusses important themes like concept analysis, systematic doubt, the method of deduction from fact, logical necessitation, the nature of philosophical analysis, the nature of value, the metaphysical concept of space, Moore and philosophical analysis, the hidden structure of philosophical theories, and the relevance of psychoanalysis to philosophy. This volume will be an essential source for scholars and researchers of philosophy, logic, and metaphysics.

"Wittgenstein was capable of profound insights into academic, reasoned philosophy, insights that can lead to the explanation of its central enigma: the intrinsic irresolvability of its disagreements which attaches to every one of its claims . . . There can be no room for doubt that his mind was in conflict with itself, that the traditional although extraordinarily original thinker was in conflict with the iconoclastic thinker. Thisperhaps is one reason why he never developed his insights, and why he scattered them so thinly in his later writings, where they lie concealed like uncut diamonds on a pebbled beach." -- from the ForewordMorris Lazerowitz and Alice Ambrose, in this important book, attempt to uncover and make clear the insights embedded in Wittgenstein's later work that, so far, have not received the critical attention they deserve. These insights, once understood, can have great explanatory power for philosophy and make it possible to look at conventional philosophy with a new understanding.The sixteen original essays presented here, twelve of which have never been published before, discuss Wittgenstein's work after the Notebooks, 1914-1916. The authors bring to light the thoughts behind Wittgenstein's often cryptic remarks on the "linguistic unmasking of philosophical utterances."The topics discussed include necessity and philosophy, linguistic solipsism, Bouwsma's Paradox, the fly bottle, empiricism, being and existence, mathematical proof, the philosopher and day dreaming, among others.
