Bertrand Russell on Logical Analysis

[@Bombtrack411]

History of Western Philosophy is a great reference guide. Russell was so brilliant.

I love his fearless attitude in tackling difficult questions. This way of thinking has been buried in the current culture of the U$A. He uses his mind as a laboratory and goes wherever logic/reasoning takes him. Very refreshing.

[@2msvalkyrie529]

Yes. ! Even if you disagree with him it's great exercise to discuss / debate with him..!! He was not invariably right !! And over relied on Logic .!!

[@lizgichora6472]

Scientific truths are acquired by observation, the objective is impartial and can only be improved upon. Thank you Professor Bertrand Arthur William Russell.

[@vipersuphere]

totally agree w/ you there

[@robandrews4815]

Bertrand Russell was awesome. I'm glad he lives on through the modern magic of film and video. Immagin seeing and hearing Plato or Arisrotle.

[@robandrews4815]

He clarified the exact meaning of words, to make philosophy more like science.

Terms seem to come from vagueness and mysticism, and are then given a strict terminological treatment by brave logicians! Thrilling stuff!

[@plekkchand]

What's brave about it?

[@toni4729]

Oh! That comic pic of Russel is oh so accurate, it's fabulous.

Good lecture

[@terribleTed-ln6cm]

Nice. I read in high school long ago. But, do not recommend to the philosophy student. Logicism is false. And, he gets QM and GR wrong. Math is without a foundation (and doesn’t need one), but consistency and completeness proof for fields or systems are still useful. We are just left with a patchwork and one I doubt category theory will stitch because (well see my forthcoming book). I do think however that despite its faults and errors AJ Ayer’s *Language, Truth and Logic* is the best first book in philosophy.
