Logic and Knowledge: Essays 1901-1950Many of Bertrand Russell's most important essays in logic and the theory of knowledge were not easily available until Professor Marsh collected them together in 1956. This work is now the best source of Russell's views in these areas and is firmly established as a philosophical classic in its own right. |
