The Principles of Mathematics, by Bertrand Russell (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand_Russell), was first published in 1903. This online edition is based on the public domain text as it appears in the 1996 Norton paperback reprint of the 1938 Second Edition (ISBN 0-393-31404-9). (We have been forced to omit Russell’s Introduction to the Second Edition from this online edition, as it is still held under copyright.)
