"A high school drop-out who served in the American army and then managed to slip into Oxford on the G.I. Bill, Frank Cioffi gained a considerable public reputation in Freudian and Wittgensteinian circles. This account of his conversation is written in a Boswellian spirit, capturing the sharp intelligence, boisterous sense of humour and wealth of illustrations Cioffi was able to bring to bear on life's biggest problems."-- page [4] of cover.
