What is P.M.S. Hacker known for?
I am primarily known for my extensive work on Ludwig Wittgenstein, particularly the multi-volume Analytical Commentary on the *Philosophical Investigations* written with G.P. Baker. My aim has been to elucidate Wittgenstein's later philosophy through rigorous examination of his concepts and their logical grammar. I defend a therapeutic reading of Wittgenstein, seeing philosophy as the untangling of conceptual confusions arising from linguistic misuse.
