Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 1st Edition. Printed in Great Britain. [Date from the copyright page.] Stated First American Edition; First Printing. Preface, Translator's Note, Introduction, Footnotes, Additional Notes, Bibliography, Indexes of Names & Subjects; xv, 412 pages. The original charcoal-gray boards are in excellent condition, with corners sharp and gilt lettering bright on gently-bumped spine. Binding is strong. However, the crisp, bright interior has pencil underlining on a few dozen pages, by my late philosopher-father, a Wittgenstein scholar. [The quality of the paper would stand up well to erasing of the pencil, but there is quite a bit.] Top edge is deep red. The unclipped dust jacket has some rubbing, a few small chips at the edges, and a large 'bite' at the rear---only the publisher's name affected. [Please see my five images of the actual book.] "What is the meaning of 'meaning'? What are we to do when one person declares meaningless what another finds supremely meaningful? Is there any way of knowing which is right? Can we arrive at a common understanding of what is meaningful? The author contends that contemporary philosophy does point to such a common understanding. § This book also makes a major contribution to today's questions in both philosophy and theology."---from the flap. As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage.
