Frank Ramsey was the greatest of the remarkable generation of
Cambridge philosophers and logicians which included G. E. Moore,
Bertrand Russell, Ludwig Wittgenstein and Maynard Keynes. Before
his tragically early death in 1930 at the age of twenty-six, he had
done seminal work in mathematics and economics as well as in logic
and philosophy. This volume, with a new and extensive introduction
by D. H. Mellor, contains all Ramsey's previously published
writings on philosophy and the foundations of mathematics. The
latter gives the definitive form and defence of the reduction of
mathematics to logic undertaken in Russell and Whitehead's
Principia Mathematica; the former includes the most profound and
original studies of universals, truth, meaning, probability,
knowledge, law and causation, all of which are still constantly
referred to, and still essential reading for all serious students
of these subjects.
