From the reviews: "The book Interactive Wittgenstein - Essays in Memory of Georg Henrik von Wright, edited by Enzo De Pellegrin, pays homage to the interpretative and philological academic work developed by von Wright. ... an important contribution for those who intend to study the relation between religion and philosophical thought in the work of Wittgenstein. The multiplicity of perspectives presented in Interactive Wittgenstein ensures that the book offers a useful addition to studies about Wittgenstein." (Nuno Ribeiro, Philosophy in Review, Vol. XXXIII (2), 2013)
