この本は元々 Original German edition published by Suhrkamp Verlag, 1997 である。
どうやら現在Logical Empiricismについて論じる場合には、必読文献・座右の書となっているようである。
これはちょうどPolish Schoolならば

• Jan Wolenski　　Logic and Philosophy in the Lvov-Warsaw School, Kluwer Academic Publishers, Synthese library, vol. 198, 1989

を読むに若くはないように、Logical Empiricismならば今日の注文文献を読むに若かず、ということのようだ。
なくならないうちに購入しておこう。
