    Extractions: Bertrand Russell, the third Earl Russell, is the twentieth century's most important liberal thinker, one of two or three of its major philosophers, and a prophet for millions of the creative and rational life. He was born in 1872, at the height of Britain's economic and political ascendancy, and died in 1970 when Britain's empire had all but vanished and her power had been drained in two victorious but debilitating world wars. At his death, however, his voice still carried moral authority, for he was one of the world's most influential critics of nuclear weapons and the American war in Vietnam. Although born into one of Britain's most distinguished aristocratic Whig families, he became a persistent advocate of social democracy and other progressive causes, such as women's rights, peace among nations and a scientific approach to eradicate personal and public irrationality. His grandfather as Lord John Russell had been the architect of the Great Reform Bill of 1832, which extended the franchise peacefully to many in the middle classes. Orphaned before he was four years old, Bertrand Russell was brought up by his grandmother who tried to train him to become Prime Minister in the tradition of his grandfather.

    A nuanced article on this paradox of naive set theory, happened upon by russell in 1901. Includes Category Society Philosophy Philosophers russell, bertrand and foundations for arithmetic logic paraconsistent mathematics inconsistent Peano, Giuseppe Principia Mathematica russell, bertrand type theory  
    http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/russell-paradox/
    
    Extractions: JUN Russell's paradox is the most famous of the logical or set-theoretical paradoxes. The paradox arises within naive set theory by considering the set of all sets that are not members of themselves. Such a set appears to be a member of itself if and only if it is not a member of itself, hence the paradox. Some sets, such as the set of all teacups, are not members of themselves. Other sets, such as the set of all non-teacups, are members of themselves. Call the set of all sets that are not members of themselves S. If S is a member of itself, then by definition it must not be a member of itself. Similarly, if S is not a member of itself, then by definition it must be a member of itself. Discovered by Bertrand Russell in 1901, the paradox has prompted much work in logic, set theory and the philosophy and foundations of mathematics. Russell appears to have discovered his paradox in May of 1901 while working on his Principles of Mathematics (1903). Cesare Burali-Forti, an assistant to Giuseppe Peano, had discovered a similar antinomy in 1897 when he noticed that since the set of ordinals is well-ordered, it, too, must have an ordinal. However, this ordinal must be both an element of the set of all ordinals and yet greater than every such element.

    Extractions: Bertrand Russell published a large number of books on logic, the theory of knowledge, and many other topics. He is one of the most important logicians of the 20th Century. Russell's Mathematical Contributions Over a long and varied career, Bertrand Russell made ground-breaking contributions to the foundations of mathematics and to the development of contemporary formal logic, as well as to analytic philosophy. His contributions relating to mathematics include his discovery of Russell's paradox, his defence of logicism (the view that mathematics is, in some significant sense, reducible to formal logic), his introduction of the theory of types, and his refining and popularizing of the first-order predicate calculus. Along with he is usually credited with being one of the two most important logicians of the twentieth century.

    Extractions: English mathematician and philosopher who held advanced liberal social views for his days. He campaigned for women's suffrage and education. Russell won the Nobel Prize in literature. He was also an outstanding mathematician. He believed that math is indistinguishable from logic and founded the logicist school of mathematical thought. With Whitehead , he tried to invent a system of logic on which mathematics could be based. The result was a book entitled Principia Mathematica (3 volumes, 1910-1913). , however, later showed that such efforts were doomed since any rigid logical system contains undecidable propositions. Russell is also known for the letter he sent to Frege , who was just completing his epic work on the foundations of mathematics. Russell posed the paradox: is "the set of all sets which are not members of themselves" a member of itself? This conundrum, known as Russell's paradox showed that Frege's work must not be logically consistent, and sent it crumbling.

    Extractions: Bertrand Russell, 1960 By courtesy of the British Broadcasting Corporation, London [Video] in full BERTRAND ARTHUR WILLIAM RUSSELL, 3RD EARL RUSSELL OF KINGSTON RUSSELL, VISCOUNT AMBERLEY OF AMBERLEY AND OF ARDSALLA (b. May 18, 1872, Trelleck, Monmouthshire, Eng.d. Feb. 2, 1970, near Penrhyndeudraeth, Merioneth, Wales), English logician and philosopher, best known for his work in mathematical logic and for his social and political campaigns, including his advocacy of both pacifism and nuclear disarmament. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950. Russell was the second son of Viscount Amberley and his wife, Katherine, daughter of the 2nd Baron Stanley of Alderley. Lord Amberley was the third son of Lord John Russell, who was twice prime minister and became the 1st Earl Russell. This situation set the pattern of Russell's philosophical career. He was determined not to be beguiled by human pretensions to knowledge or by unbacked assumptions either about the foundations of knowledge or about what may be said to exist. Henceforth, one of his primary aims was to inquire, with skeptical and parsimonious intent, "how much we can be said to know and with what degree of certainty or doubtfulness." He entered Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1890, was at once recognized as intellectually outstanding, and soon became a member of the exclusive society known to outsiders as

40. Icarus, Or, The Future Of Science
    ICARUS or The Future of Science by bertrand russell 1924. Transcribed byCosma Rohilla Shalizi Berkeley, California 11 June 1994 I. Introductory.  
    http://cscs.umich.edu/~crshalizi/Icarus.html
    
    Extractions: 11 June 1994 Mr. Haldane's Daedalus has set forth an attractive picture of the future as it may become through the use of scientific discoveries to promote human happiness. Much as I should like to agree with his forecast, a long experience of statesmen and government has made me somewhat sceptical. I am compelled to fear that science will be used to promote the power of dominant groups, rather than to make men happy. Icarus, having been taught to fly by his father Daedalus, was destroyed by his rashness. I fear that the same fate may overtake the populations whom modern men of science have taught to fly. Some of the dangers inherent in the progress of science while we retain our present political and economic institutions are set forth in the following pages. This subject is so vast that it is impossible, within a limited space, to do more than outline some of its aspects. The world in which we live differs profoundly from that of Queen Anne's time, and this difference is mainly attributable to science. That is to say, the difference would be very much less than it is but for various scientific discoveries, but resulted from those discoveries by the operation of ordinary human nature. The changes that have been brought about have been partly good, partly bad; whether, in the end, science will prove to have been a blessing or a curse to mankind, is to my mind, still a doubtful question.
