Academic philosopher, logician, public intellectual, educator,
political activist, and freethinker, Bertrand Russell was and
remains a colossus. No other single philosopher in the last 200
years can be said to have created so much and influenced so many.
His Principia Mathematica, written with A. N. Whitehead, ranks as
one of the greatest books on logic since Aristotle. His
philosophical work on language, meaning, logic, mind, and
metaphysics formed the basis of 20th-century philosophy. Russell
was active in numerous political movements of liberation and peace,
and his popular writings, including the best-selling History of
Western Philosophy, won the Nobel prize in literature in 1950. The
A to Z of Bertrand Russell's Philosophy offers a comprehensive,
current guide to the many facets of Russell's work. Through its
chronology, introductory essay, bibliography, and hundreds of
cross-referenced dictionary entries on concepts, people, works, and
technical terms, Russell's impact on philosophy and related fields
is made accessible to the reader in this must-have reference.
