theory of philosophical enquiry. It gives Russell's views on such
subjects as the distinction between appearance and reality and the
existence and nature of matter.

'This book was written to give an account of Socialism, Anarchism,
and Syndicalism. It was completed in the early months of 1918 and
before the end of the First World War was imaginable. The prospect
of peace seemed remote. So much has happened since that time ...and
the solutions, urgent problems and immediate hopes are no longer
what they were in 1918. But the problem of preserving as much
liberty as possible under Socialism is even more urgent now than
then, and the greater part of what is said on this problem in this
book still seems to me valid.' - Bertrand Russell, from his 1948
preface.

Russell is the most important philosopher of mathematics of the
twentieth century. The author of "The Principles of Mathematics",
and, with Alfred Whitehead, the massive "Principia Mathematica", he
brought together his formidable knowledge of the subject and skills
as a gifted communicator to provide a classic introduction to the
philosophy of mathematics. "Introduction to Mathematical
Philosophy" sets out in a lucid and non-technical way the main
ideas of "Principia Mathematica". It is as inspiring and useful to
the beginner now as it was when it was first published in 1919.
Between 1931 and 1935, Bertrand Russell contributed some 156 essays
to the literary pages of the American newspaper New York American.
These were often fun, humorous observations on the very real issues
of the day, such as the Depression, the rise of Nazism and
Prohibition, to more perennial themes such as love, parenthood,
education and friendship. Available for the first time in the
Routledge Classics series in a single volume, this pithy,
provocative and often-personal collection of essays brings together
the very best of Russell's many contributions to the New York
American, and proves just as engaging for today's readers as they
were in the 1930s.

A classic work from early in Russell's career and his major
engagement with the nature of the mind Set the path for much of his
subsequent philosophical beliefs about mind and consciousness
Revised and updated Introduction by Thomas Baldwin places the book
in helpful historical and philosophical context
The Analysis of Matter is the product of thirty years of thinking
by one of the twentieth century's best-known philosophers. An
inquiry into the philosophical foundations of physics, it was
written against the background of stunning new developments in
physics earlier in the century, above all relativity, as well as
the excitement around quantum theory, which was just being
developed. Concerned to place physics on a stable footing at a time
of great theoretical change, Russell argues that the concept of
matter itself can be replaced by a logical construction whose basic
foundations are events. He is careful to point out that this does
not prove that matter does not exist, but it does show that
physicists can get on with their work without assuming that matter
does exist. Russell argues that fundamental bits of ''matter'',
such as electrons and protons, are simply groups of events
connected in a certain way and their properties are all that are
required for physics. This Routledge Classics edition includes the
1992 Introduction by John G. Slater.
