On October 25, 1946, in a crowded room in Cambridge, England, the great twentieth-century philosophers Ludwig Wittgenstein and Karl Popper came face to face for the first and only time. The meeting -- which lasted ten minutes -- did not go well. Their loud and aggressive confrontation became the stuff of instant legend, but precisely what happened during that brief confrontation remained for decades the subject of intense disagreement. An engaging mix of philosophy, history, biography, and literary detection, Wittgenstein's Poker explores, through the Popper/Wittgenstein confrontation, the history of philosophy in the twentieth century. It evokes the tumult of fin-de-siécle Vienna, Wittgentein's and Popper's birthplace; the tragedy of the Nazi takeover of Austria; and postwar Cambridge University, with its eccentric set of philosophy dons, including Bertrand Russell. At the center of the story stand the two giants of philosophy themselves -- proud, irascible, larger than life -- and spoiling for a fight.

當作茶餘飯後的閑書讀來還是挺有意思的。從這兩個人的衝突和爭論中瞭解他們的傢庭背景，和那個時代整個哲學的大體狀況也是個不錯的選擇。感覺這本書的涉及麵還是比較廣的。

評分其實純粹是衝著副標題上赫然寫著的“兩個大哲學傢十分鍾爭吵的故事”去看的，而書中輕描淡寫的過瞭。 作者更傾嚮於按曆史角度寫一部客觀公正的八卦，正因為如此，此書變成瞭一部記錄瞭一整個時代的史書和啓濛型書籍：近代科學史，維也納小組，劍橋，反猶，世界大戰，文明中心...
評分1946年10月25日，在劍橋道德科學俱樂部，兩位哲學大佬，維特根斯坦與波普爾，發生瞭一場十分鍾的爭吵。濛剋的《維特根斯坦傳》對此有半頁的描述，而本書對這場衝突進行瞭深度挖掘和解讀，以大事件敘述風格，展現瞭這場衝突的豐富場景。兩位哲學傢主角以及作為第三員大佬的羅素...
