Review of P. Coffey, ''The science of logic''
{{Drawer|title=Review of P. Coffey, ''The science of logic''
|content= In 1913, Wittgenstein published a very short review of philosopher and mathematician Peter Coffey’s ''The science of logic'' in ''The Cambridge Review'' (vol. 34, no. 853, 6 Mar. 1913, p. 351). In an openly ironic tone, Wittgenstein argues against the antiquated views of the author and the inaccuracies of the logical notions he expresses, some of which – such as the subject-predicate form of the proposition, the relationship between thought and reality, and the logical-semantic function of the verb “to be” – will have an important development in Wittgenstein’s own later works.
