Bertrand Russell SIR,—Mr. Maurice Cranston in his article on Bertrand

Russell in the Spectator of May 16th lamented that Lord Russell's only account of the events of his own life has appeared in a symposium called The Philosophy of Bertrand Russell, printed at Evanston. Illinois, in 1944. Your readers might be glad to know that this publication is not so obscure or so unobtainable as it sounds. It is a volume in the Library of Living Philosophers edited by Professor Schilpp and published in this country by Cambridge University Press. The Russell volume is now in its third edition and has long been available through any book-shop in the United Kingdom.—Yours faithfully,
