One of the major intellectual landmarks of the 20th century, Russell and Whitehead's Principia Mathematica sought to elegantly express mathematics in terms of symbolic logic. First published in 1910-13, the Principia Mathematica is deemed "the greatest single contribution to logic that has appeared in the two thousand years since Aristotle" (DSB). This second edition has been revised, and is of great importance for presenting a new "theory of types," meant to rectify the meta-logical paradoxes exposed by the first edition.
