Published in 1903, this book was the first treatise on the logical foundations of mathematics to be written in English. It sets forth the arguments in favour of the view that mathematics and logic are identical.
Published in 1903, this book was the first comprehensive treatise on the logical foundations of mathematics written in English. It sets forth, as far as possible without mathematical and logical symbolism, the grounds in favour of the view that mathematics and logic are identical. It proposes simply that what is commonly called mathematics are merely later deductions from logical premises. It provided the thesis for which Principia Mathematica provided the detailed proof, and introduced the work of Frege to a wider audience.
In addition to the new introduction by John Slater, this edition contains Russell''s introduction to the 1937 edition in which he defends his position against his formalist and intuitionist critics.
