Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus' by Ludwig Wittgenstein (1921)

Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus offers a unique insight into how language works, how it interacts with the world, and how it can be used to provide an understanding of the world.

The book is divided into seven sections which explore logic, language, the limits of language, the concept of the world, the self and the ethics of life.

It proposes a system of logical atomism in which the world is composed of atomic facts which are the basis for all logical propositions.

It argues that language can only describe facts and not the reality that lies beyond it.

Wittgenstein's view of language is that it is a picture of reality, so meaning is only found in the context of the world.

He argues that the only thing that can be said with certainty is that which is expressed in the propositions of logic.

His approach to ethics is based on the idea that the only thing of value is the ethical life, which is a journey that can only be found in the process of living.
