One of the methods in this work is applied to Plato's Theaetetus, producing two 3x3 grids, one with the numbers 1 through 9 and the other with the color sequence "RRBGGGRWW." This work dares its reader to "just try - in a real case - to doubt someone else's fear or pain," in response to the claim that "I can only believe that someone else is in pain, but I know if I am." In one section, this work considers the paradox that "no course of action could be determined by a rule because every course of action can be made out to accord with a rule." This work imagines that we could distinguish Olympic from military sharpshooting by analogy to related people's "family resemb

In one section, this work considers the paradox that "no course of action could be determined by a rule because every course of action can be made out to accord with a rule."

For 10 points, identify this work which uses the "beetle in a box" to argue against the possibility of a private language, written by Ludwig Wittgenstein.
