Philosopher, logician, mathematician and historian Bertrand Russell is known not only as a great thinker but as passionate, eccentric and radical social critic. He wrote the Principia Mathematica, the most difficult book on mathematics ever written but considered himself a complete failure for most of his life.
He was a deeply religious man who hated all organized religion, an advocate of women's rights who married several times and had numerous affairs. His outspoken views on sex, marriage, religion and education scandalized many - and still can.
Dave Robinson and Judy Groves’ celebration of his life and work provides a unique insight into an extraordinary man.
