Circa l’autore
Bertrand Russell (1872–1970)—one of the greatest philosophers of the twentieth century—made noteworthy contributions not just to logic and philosophy, but also to a broad range of other subjects including education, history, political theory and religious studies. Having been educated privately, he entered Cambridge Trinity College in 1890, where he met Alfred North Whitehead and with him started the ambitious project of reducing mathematics to logic. His early philosophical work (along with that of his pupil Ludwig Wittgenstein) had been mainly analytic and as such was one of the inspirations for the analytic movement in philosophy.
