Abstract

A HIGH standard is reached by most of the twenty-one essays in this imposing volume. Limitations of space make it impracticable to notice them separately; but some account may be given of the picture of Russell and his philosophy which emerges from the work as a whole.

Edited by Paul Arthur Schilpp. (Library of Living Philosophers, Vol. 5.) Pp. xvi + 815. (Evanston and Chicago: Northwestern University; London: Cambridge University Press, 1944.) 30s. net.
