These essays, by some of the foremost scholars of his life and works, reexamine Russell's famous distinction between \"knowledge by acquaintance\" and \"knowledge by description,\" his developing views about our knowledge of physical reality, and his views about our knowledge of logic, mathematics, and other abstract matters. In addition, this volume includes an editors' introduction, which summarizes Russell's influential book, presents new biographical details about how and why Russell wrote it, and highlights its continued significance for contemporary philosophy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Donovan Wishon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1575868466\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781575868462\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Center for the Study of Language and Informat\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 281\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Donovan Wishon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939731931391,"sku":"9781575868462","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_daec4e85-a22d-49d2-9a6f-b78924af40c3.jpg?v=1681443179","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/acquaintance-knowledge-and-logic-donovan-wishon-9781575868462","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
