Synopsis

Introducing Bertrand Russell celebrates the life and work of a very extraordinary man. We meet a passionate eccentric, an aristocrat with socialist and pacifist beliefs, a deeply religious man who hated all organised religion, and an advocate of women's rights who married several times and had numerous affairs. His outspoken views on sex, marriage, religion and education scandalised many - and still can. Judy Groves splendidly illustrates this remarkable story.
