-Biographical Information

Bertrand Arthur William Russell, 3rd Earl Russell, OM, FRS[66] (18 May 1872 - 2 February 1970) was a British mathematician, philosopher, logician, and public intellectual. He had a considerable influence on mathematics, logic, set theory, linguistics, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, computer science and various areas of analytic philosophy, especially philosophy of mathematics, philosophy of language, epistemology, and metaphysics.

Russell had been at the heart of the British "revolt against idealism" in the early twentieth century. He is regarded as the father of analytic philosophy together with his predecessor Gottlob Frege, his friend G. E. Moore and his pupil Ludwig Wittgenstein. He's commonly believed to be among the twentieth century's premier logicians.With A. N. Whitehead he authored Principia Mathematica, an effort to develop a rational foundation for mathematics, the essential work of classical logic. "On Denoting," his philosophical essay, has been praised as a "paradigm of philosophy." His work has had a great effect on the areas of mathematics, logic, set theory, linguistics, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, computer science (see type theory & type system) and philosophy, especially the fields of philosophy of language, metaphysics and epistemology.
