Story0
Russell once said, "Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric." His views on religion in general, and on Christianity in particular (as in this work), were considered "eccentric" by many of his contemporaries. So were his views on sex, which figures frequently as an example of the misery that Christian leaders and thinkers inflict, and for which he was often vilified. The lectures in this collection leave no doubt about his views on these and related subjects.

Early 20th-century philosopher, mathematician, historian, and social critic Bertrand Russell once again offers a refreshing and insightful look at the way in which we raise and educate our children and the effect it has on the kind of adults they become.

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.

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.

In Proposed Roads to Freedom, Bertrand Russell, the eminent British philosopher and Nobel laureate, delves into the political ideologies of the early 20th century. Written in 1918, this insightful work critiques three major currents within the political left Marxian socialism, anarchism, and syndicalism. Russell, a pivotal figure in analytic philosophy who challenged the status quo of idealism, offers a thought-provoking analysis that remains relevant today. Join us as we explore his reflections on freedom and the pathways to achieving it. (Summary by Wikipedia/Carl Manchester)

Fresh from a visit to Bolshevik Russia, where he was less than impressed by Lenins regime, Russell discovered a different narrative in China. Like many travelers, he projected his ideals onto the nation, spotting glimmers of hope amidst the shadows of the past. Welcomed by enthusiastic young intellectuals who viewed him as a beacon of modern and scientific thought, he faced a...
