This book explores moments of philosophical embarrassment, focusing on Hume and Wittgenstein, who recognized how their critiques challenged the very foundations of philosophy. It examines how figures like the Vienna Circle and Quine redefined philosophy’s aims and how the later Wittgenstein warned against the pitfalls of scientism and self-deception.
