PRINCIPIA MATHEMATICA
BY
A.N. WHITEHEAD
AND
BERTRAND RUSSELL
Principia Mathematica was first published
in 19 1 0—13 ; this is the fifth impression of
the second edition of 192^-7.
The Principia has long been recognized
as one of the intellectual landmarks of the
century. It was the first book to show
clearly the close relationship between
mathematics and formal logic. Starting
from a minimal number of axioms, White-
head and Russell display the structure of
both kinds of thought. No other book
has had such an influence on the subse-
quent history of mathematical philosophy.
