description: Bertrand Russell's philosophy of logical atomism has had a major influence on the development of analytic philosophy. The essential features of this atomism were presented in eight lectures delivered by Russell in 1919. This book is an exposition of those lectures for readers with minimal philosophical training, the aim being to provide a sound understanding of the problems which Russell addresses as well as an awareness of the acceptability of his proposed solutions. Easily grasped examples are used to aid the exposition, but over-simplification of difficult problems is avoided.
