Notes and topics

"Russell and my father were both Cambridge mathematicians. But I think that the link between them lay more in their political and philosophical approach than in any close mathematical affinity. Russell of course was not a churchman. But I think that both he and my father had an essentially scientific approach to the problems of life and they were both of course radicals in their general way of thinking."
