Nothing is sacred. Sex, morality, politics, society - all are fair game for Bertrand Russell's acerbic wit and keen eye. With What I Believe first published in 1925, Russell took on organized religion. Along with Why I Am Not a Christian, this essay must rank as the most articulate example of Russell's famed atheism. It is also one of the most notorious. Used as evidence in a 1940 court case in which Russell was declared unfit to teach college-level philosophy, What I Believe was to become one of his most defining works. The ideas contained within were and are controversial, contentious and - to the religious - downright blasphemous. More than three-quarters of a century after it was written, the arguments within this essay continue to challenge one's faith and assumptions. A remarkable work, it remains the best concise introduction to Russell's thought.

An accessible and lucid yet enlightening philosophy essay that articulates Bertrand Russell's core belief: The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge.
評分這本小書文筆真的好,好到值得通篇背誦,但是沒啥思想。其對於ethics的觀點太過根植於西方的曆史,從儒傢的立場看真的感覺挺膚淺的。最後還提到瞭老子,不倫不類,感覺西方人來理解東方思想真的有很大睏難。。。。無論如何,雖然具體的觀點有待商榷,羅素的人文情懷、對待生命態度和批判社會的精神令人尊敬。
評分what we ought to desire is merely what someone else wishes us to desire. they do this through the desire for approval and the fear for dis.
評分很不錯。羅素和同時期中國國民政府時期鬍適,兩人的思維方式很相近,對科學的看法也相近。這樣的人,如果做大學校長的話,一定能為學校招到最好的教師。
評分Life inspired by love and guided with knowledge.
