The Practice and Theory of Bolshevism, written following a trip to Soviet Russia in 1920, reflects his observations of the Bolshevik approach to this ideal.

First published in 1925, Bertrand Russell’s ABC of Relativity was considered a masterwork of its time, contributing significantly to the mass popularisation of science. Authoritative and accessible, it provides a remarkable introductory guide to Einstein’s theory of Relativity to a general readership. One of the most definitive reference guides of its kind, and written by one of the twentieth century’s most influential philosophers, ABC of Relativity continues to be as relevant today as it was on first publication.

Story1
This pacifist manifesto was published in 1917, as the First World War was dragging to a close. The resolution of this catastrophic conflict resulted in a reconstruction of Europe, the fallout from which led to an even more cataclysmic war. Russell delineates the problem as being due to the institutionalizing of national hostilities and the consequent apportioning of blame among the warring parties. In his exposition Russell considers the roles played by a number of institutions, social and political, reserving some his sharpest criticism for organized religion.

È nella convinzione che, mediante sforzi ben indirizzati, molti infelici possano liberarsi della loro infelicità e diventare felici, che ho scritto questo libro."

Als einer der Väter der Analytischen Philosophie, hat Bertrand Russell eine Fülle von Essays verfasst, die sehr entschieden seine Meinung präsentieren und trotz seiner akademischen Formulierungen allgemeinverständlich bleiben. In dem von Norbert Hülm gelesenen Werk "Unpopuläre Betrachtungen" findet sich eine Sammlung seiner Aufsätze, die populär wurden. Die enthaltenen Essays stellen Russell deutlich als den klaren Denker und großen Stilist dar, der er war. Russells Analysen zu folgen ist nicht nur sehr unterhaltsam, es regt auch zum Nachdenken an.

Ya desde muy pequeño, Bertrand Russell se caracterizó por su espíritu disquisitivo; no había tema o axioma sobre los que no tuviera una pregunta. Admirador de Euclides desde los once años, las matemáticas se convirtieron en una pasión de por vida. Lector voraz, estudioso y autodidacta, profundizó en la poesía, la filosofía, la historia, la política, la ética, la metafísica, la filosofía matemática, la epistemología y la filosofía de la ciencia, interesándose en las polémicas y los temas que definieron su época: el imperialismo, el libre comercio o el sufragio femenino.

Story0
In "Icarus; or, The Future of Science," Bertrand Russell explores the potential consequences of scientific advancement, drawing parallels between the myth of Icarus and the development of technology. He argues that while science can lead to progress, it also poses risks, particularly regarding power and societal structures. Russell suggests that scientific advancements, especially in the physical sciences, can increase power, lead to industrialism and war, and necessitate large-scale organization, which could potentially be used for oppressive purposes.

Story0
Anyone familiar with Russell's works will find a common theme running through the material: Despite being published over a century ago, his thoughts and philosophy remain remarkably a propos today. Russell argues AGAINST the possessive impulse that global capitalism stimulates in humans and which only benefits the possessor, and FOR the creative impulse, which benefits not only the creator but humankind as a whole. He also supports the establishment of an international parliament to address nation-to-nation conflicts—a palatable alternative to war.
