The Search for Mathematical Roots, 1870-1940 Logics, Set Theories and the Foundations of Mathematics from Cantor through Russell to Godel

While many books have been written about Bertrand Russell's philosophy and some on his logic, I. Grattan-Guinness has written the first comprehensive history of the mathematical background, content, and impact of the mathematical logic and philosophy of mathematics that Russell developed with A...
