Features: Bertrand Russell was one of the greatest philosophers of the 20th century, as well as a renowned mathematician, essayist, and social activist. Unlike the reclusive scholars who often detached themselves from the world, Russell was a humanist and pacifist with a strong sense of social concern. He dedicated his life to political activities and social issues, and wrote extensively on political and social matters. His heart was filled with justice, conscience, wisdom, and tenderness, diverse, profound, and vast. The selected works in this collection are from such works as "Mysticism and Logic," "Why We Fight," and "The Way to Peace" that best reflect his style. It is worth every kind, just, and young person who aspires to a better life to read and savor.
