It gives the general background necessary for any serious discussion on the foundational crisis of mathematics in the beginning of the twentieth century. Requiring neither prior knowledge of mathematics nor aptitude for mathematical symbolism the book serves as essential reading for anyone interested in the intersection of mathematics and logic and in the development of analytic philosophy in the twentieth century. Russell offers to his readers a penetrating discussion on certain issues of mathematical logic that embodies the dawn of modern analytic philosophy. George Allen & Unwin, Ltd unknown books

With these words Bertrand Russell introduces what is indeed a revolutionary book. Taking as his starting-point the irrationality of the world he offers by contrast something 'wildly paradoxical and subversive' - a belief that reason should determine human actions. Today besieged as we are by the numbing onslaught of twenty-first-century capitalism Russell's defence of scepticism and independence of mind is as timely as ever. In clear engaging prose he guides us through the key philosophical issues that affect our daily lives - freedom happiness emotions ethics and beliefs - and offers no-nonsense advice. W.W.
