It is generally admitted that most grown-up people, however regrettably, will try to have a good time."--Bertrand Russell
From 1931 to 1935 Bertrand Russell was one of the regular contributors to the literary pages of the "New York American, " together with other distinguished authors such as Aldous Huxley or Vita Sackville-West. Presented here is a selection of his essays, ranging from the politically correct to the perfectly obscure: from "Is the World Going Mad?" to "Should Socialists Smoke Good Cigars?"
Even though written in the politically heated climate of the 1930s, these essays are surprisingly topical and engaging for the present day reader. "Mortals and Others" serves as a splendid, fresh introduction to the compassionate eclecticism of Bertrand Russell's mind.
