According to Bertrand Russell, 'logical symbolism is absolutely essential to any precise or thorough treatment of mathematical philosophy because language is misleading and because it is diffuse and inexact when applied to logic (for which it was never intended).' This book, a landmark in the discipline for more than 70 years, is founded on that claim. Russell provides a nontechnical, nondogmatic explanation of his philosophical critique of mathematics and logic in it. The well-known philosopher and mathematician, however, concentrates on a few problems of mathematical logic that, in his opinion, invalidated a lot of traditional and modern philosophy rather than giving an exhaustive treatment.
