This review concerns Professor Hitoshi Nagai's recent book, <i>Wittgenstein no Goshin (Wittgenstein's Misdiagnosis)</i>. In this book, Professor Nagai makes his understanding of the latter part of Wittgenstein's "Blue Book". He argues that Wittgenstein set up an epoch-making solipsism, which Professor Nagai calls "Wittgenstein's solipsism" or "linguistic solipsism", but he adds that Wittgenstein himself misunderstood the meaning and significance of this solipsism. In this review, I consider the validity of Professor Nagai's arguments.
