Bertrand Russell

Bertrand Russell

"There are two motives for reading a book; one, that you enjoy it; the other, that you can boast about it."

Bertrand Russell, in full, Bertrand Arthur William Russell, 3rd Earl Russell of Kingston Russell, Viscount Amberley of Amberley and of Ardsalla,(1872-1970), British philosopher, logician, and social reformer, founding figure in the analytic movement in Anglo-American philosophy, and recipient of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950. Russell’s contributions to logic, epistemology, and the philosophy of mathematics established him as one of the foremost philosophers of the 20th century. 
To the general public, however, he was best known as a campaigner for peace and as a popular writer on social, political, and moral subjects.

During a long, productive, and often turbulent life, he published more than 70 books and about 2,000 articles, married four times, became involved in innumerable public controversies, and was honoured and reviled in almost equal measure throughout the world. Russell was and remains one of the most widely read and popular philosophers of modern times.
