Bertrand Russell
From 1931-1935 Bertrand Russell was one of the regular contributors to the literary pages of the
New York American
, together with other distinguished authors, such as Aldous Huxley and Vita Sackville-West.
Mortals and Others Volume II
presents a further selection of his essays, ranging from the politically correct, to the perfectly obscure: from
The Prospects of Democracy
to
Men Versus Insects
.
Even though written in the politically heated climate of the 1930s, these essays are surprisingly topical and engaging for the present day reader. Volume II of
Mortals and Others
serves as a splendid, fresh introduction to the compassionate eclecticism of Bertrand Russell's mind.
