'The - Tractatus is one of the fundamental texts of twentieth-century philosophy - short, bold, cryptic, and remarkable in its power to stir the imagination of philosophers and non-philosophers alike.'
'Beautifully strange ... an icy, gnomic, compact work of mystical logic.' - Steven Poole, Guardian
'Among the productions of the twentieth century the Tractatus continues to stand out for its beauty and its power.' - A.J. Ayer
'Mr Wittgenstein, in his preface, tells us that his book is not a textbook, and that its object will be attained if there is one person who reads it with understanding and to whom it affords pleasure. We think there are many persons who will read it with understanding and enjoy it. The treatise is clear and lucid. The author is continually arresting us with new and striking thoughts, and he closes on a note of mystical exaltation.' - Times Literary Supplement
'Quite as exciting as we had been led to suppose it to be.' - New Statesman
'Pears and McGuinness can claim our gratitude not for doing merely this (a better translation) but for doing it with such a near approach to perfection.' - Mind
