Abstract

The purpose of this study is to give a critical exposition of Bertrand Arthur Russell’s logico-mathematical philosophy. The thesis, which is the core of all his work on this subject, is the contention that logic and pure mathematics form a continuous whole, or as Russell himself states it : “They differ as boy and man: logic is the youth of mathematics and mathematics is the manhood of logic."
