Mysticism and Logic

by Bertrand Russell Narrated by George Easton

Overview

"Mysticism and Logic" is a collection of essays by Bertrand Russell that explores the relationship between mysticism and logic. Russell examines the nature of religious experience, arguing that mystical experiences are not beyond the reach of rational inquiry. He also discusses the nature of language and how it shapes our understanding of the world. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on mysticism and the second part on logic. Russell's writing is clear and accessible, making complex philosophical ideas easy to understand for readers. Overall, "Mysticism and Logic" is an engaging exploration of the intersection of two seemingly disparate fields of study. Read in English, unabridged.

"Mr. Russell’s latest volume, though not containing any hitherto unedited matter, is one of the most important that he has published...the last six of the ten essays provide the best possible introduction to Mr. Russell’s philosophy." - T. S. Eliot

"The present volume is perhaps the most graceful and polished unbending ever achieved by a follower of abstruse studies." - New Statesman
