The Evolution of Principia Mathematica: Bertrand Russell's Manuscripts and Notes for the Second Edition

Originally published in 1910, Principia Mathematica led to the development of mathematical logic and computers and thus to information sciences. This fascinating and insightful book includes transcriptions of previously unpublished material, with introductory chapters explaining the symbolic notation and content of Russell's revisions for the second edition in 1925.
