This book takes Paul Wittgenstein, a pianist who lost his right arm in World War I, as the hero of the family and heaps scorn on Ludwig Wittgenstein, acknowledged by numerous polls as the greatest philosopher of the 20th century. So if you're looking to learn more about the latter, I most definitely do not recommend this book about his family.
