Description:
A student's guide to the central ideas and key works of Bertrand Russell.
Brief description: John Ongley currently teaches philosophy at Lehman College, City University of New York, USA. He is co-author, with Rosalind Carey, of A Historical Dictionary of Bertrand Russell's Philosophy (Rowman and Littlefield, 2009) and past editor of the Bertrand Russell Society Quarterly.
Review Quotes: "What's especially good about Ongley and Carey's book is its accessibility to all intelligent readers, not just Russell scholars...And the chapters on the rest of his technical philosophy are not only clearly presented, but are neatly separated into the early, middle, and late Russell so that the reader can gain an understanding of the evolution and coherence of Russell's philosophical thought over more than half a century." --Ray Perkins, Jr., Emeritus Professor of Philosophy, Plymouth State University, USA, Bertrand Russell Society Book Award 2014
