About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (Version 2) by Ludwig Wittgenstein, translated by Charles K. Ogden. Read in English by Landon D. C. Elkind. The Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus is the only book published by Ludwig Wittgenstein. Any summary would frankly do the work an injustice - the interested reader is directed to Wittgenstein's preface and to the introduction of Wittgenstein's teacher, Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) - upon these no author could measurably improve. (Summary by Landon D. C. Elkind)
