We have more books available by this author!. 256 pp. "'These propositions may seem mild yet if accepted they would absolutely revolutionize human life.' 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.
