'Fascinating', 'brilliant', 'oddly moving', 'a warm human picture'
- this biography was enthusiastically received when it came out in
1957. And no wonder. It is not only the lively story of a
distinguished man but a lucid account of his work and its
significance. The author, who was himself a philosopher and
journalist, has followed the bright thread of Russell's personality
with affectionate insight, from the three-day-old baby who looked
about him 'in a very energetic way', and the boy who jibbed at
taking Euclid on trust, through the many turns of his life, to the
undimmed octogenarian, still questioning and still deeply
concerned. The subject is a great one and the biographer has
matched it.
