Follow the white rabbit

This was a great tour of later Wittgenstein for me who has only read the Tractatus, it is amazing how deep the rabbit holes go if you follow the challenges he poses in such short texts. I find Professor Kuschs insistence on language as fundamentally social very refreshing and plausible!
