		John's wife Susan was also mentally ill, and eventually Russell and Edith became the legal guardians of their three daughters (two of whom, in turn, were later diagnosed with schizophrenia).

	Russell
		Bertrand Russell published a large number of books on logic, the theory of knowledge, and many other topics.
		Over a long and varied career, Bertrand Russell made ground-breaking contributions to the foundations of mathematics and to the development of contemporary formal logic, as well as to analytic philosophy.
		His contributions relating to mathematics include his discovery of Russell's paradox, his defence of logicism (the view that mathematics is, in some significant sense, reducible to formal logic), his introduction of the theory of types, and his refining and popularizing of the first-order predicate calculus.

		Bertrand finished eighth of 110 in a borrowed MIT boat and finished second the next year.
		Bertrand won a bronze in '76 behind Jochen Schuemann, and says he realized afterwards that the difference between gold and bronze was "what was between the ears—the mental state." He says in the Cup, seven years later, "at 3-1 down, the consequences of winning or losing were huge, and I remembered how cool Schuemann.

		When Sen. John Kerry was interviewed on foreign policy in Houston last Friday by New York Times reporters, he made news by declaring that as president he ''would have been prepared to send troops immediately'' to save Jean-Bertrand Aristide as president of Haiti.
		Senator John Kerry and a significant number of Congressional Democrats, for example, felt that it was appropriate to use military action to keep Aristide in power despite widespread and credible charges of anti-democratic intimidation and corruption.
		ACCORDING TO Sen. John Kerry, Haiti under President Jean-Bertrand Aristide was a “democracy,” and the United States should have sent armed forces to protect the president from his people.

		So Plato is described as just another proponent of totalitarianism, Rousseau is portrayed as a crackpot and Nietzsche is depicted as a warmonger, but the much less significant thinkers John Dewey and William James get personal kudos for being nice progressive guys full of human kindness.
		Russell's book is a great place to start, but to get a fair treatment of thinkers such as Rousseau and Nietzsche, it should be supplemented with material such as the chapters on those thinkers in Strauss and Cropsey's "History of Political Philosophy." And, of course, read Copleston's "History of Philosophy" if you have time.
		However, a modern historian would not be allowed to get away with such blatant distortions, especially in the face of acknowledged facts.

		As such it will be an invaluable resource not only for students of philosophy, but also for those interested in Russell's philosophical development.
