Bertrand Russell (1872-1970), Man of Dissent

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED

Centre for Philosophy of Natural and Social Science (CPNSS) public lecture


Russell argued against the Great War, wanted to drop atomic bombs on the Soviet Union after WWI, and later advocated nuclear disarmament. What gave him such drive, and how did a private citizen make such a world-wide impact?

Ivor Grattan-Guinness is emeritus professor of the history of mathematics and logic at Middlesex University. He has written widely on Russell's logic and philosophy.
