Introduction to the philosophy of mathematics

As Bertrand Russell expressed, "Because language is misleading, and because it is widespread and inaccurate when applied to logic (which was not intended at all), logical symbolism is extremely necessary for any precise or comprehensive treatment of mathematical philosophy." This assertion lies behind this book, which has been a fundamental work in this field for over 70 years. In it, Russell provides a non-technical and non-dogmatic description of his philosophical critique because he understands calculation and logic. And instead of comprehensive treatment, the influential philosopher and mathematician focuses on specific issues of mathematical logic that, in his opinion, invalidate much of traditional and contemporary philosophy.
