Bertrand Russell was one of the greatest philosophers of the twentieth century. He left his mark and influence in many domains of intellectual inquiry, including the foundations of mathematics, the philosophy of language, education, religion, history, ethics and politics. This title offers an account of the work and thought of this key thinker.

In 1911, Bertrand Russell began a historically formative interchange about the nature of logic and cognition with his student, Ludwig Wittgenstein. This work presents a treatment of Russell's decisive 1913 exchanges with Wittgenstein. It also incorporates little-known notes and diagrams into a different analysis of the problems Russell was facing.

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.
