Hans Reichenbach. Elements of Symbolic Logic.
New York: Macmillan. |
"Among the logicians to whom I am indebted, however,
two men stand out who have shaped modern logic in its essential lines. The first
is Bertrand Russell, of whose work I will single out here only the theories of
propositional functions and of descriptions, the use of what he calls material
implication, and the elaboration of a practical notation including operators and
bound variables. The second is David Hilbert.... I had the good fortune to learn
from both men, not only by reading their publications but also by personal
contact: ... from Russell when, some decades later, he was my colleague in the
University of California at Los Angeles, long after I had studied his books."

"However, especially in view of Mr. Russell's thus
expressed sentiments ["that `over half of their authors had not
understood' him"], the editor is all the more grateful to him for his never
failing kindness, courtesy, and helpfulness throughout the years of work on this
volume. Needless to say, without such continued cooperation from Mr. Russell the
present volume could not have materialized." (P. viii) |

"The background
has long been common ground to mathematicians. The one individual debt is to Mr.
Russell, whose influence will be recognised throughout; on its logical side, the
work is an application of the Frege-Russell method of definition to problems
that the pure mathematician, however ill-disposed to philosophy, can neither
ignore nor delegate." (P. xii) |
