Logical Atomism is a philosophy that sought to account for the
world in all its various aspects by relating it to the structure of
the language in which we articulate information. In The
Philosophy of Logical Atomism, Bertrand Russell, with input
from his young student Ludwig Wittgenstein, developed the concept
and argues for a reformed language based on pure logic. Despite
Russell’s own future doubts surrounding the concept, this founding
and definitive work in analytical philosophy by one of the world’s
most significant philosophers is a remarkable attempt to establish
a novel way of thinking.
