First published in 1903, Principles of Mathematics was Bertrand Russell's first
major work in print. It was this title which saw him begin his ascent towards em
inence. In this groundbreaking and important work, Bertrand Russell argues that
mathematics and logic are, in fact, identical and what is commonly called mathem
atics is simply later deductions from logical premises.
Highly influential an
d engaging, this important work led to Russell's dominance of analytical logic o
n western philosophy in the twentieth century.
