The philosophy of Mr. B*rtr*nd R*ss*ll
by Philip Jourdain
[London: Allen & Unwin, 1918]
An attempt to write comically about cutting-edge
topics of the day in logic. Lewis Carroll did it better,
as Jourdain perhaps realised: the accompanying "notes"
are Carroll quotes, and provide a sort of philosophical
commentary on the Alice books in their own right.
According to I. Grattan-Guinness, Russell himself
collaborated in the production of this book.
