Dear Warder

I have now read Quine, not with the care he deserves, but sufficiently for a puff.

It is an admirable book, but not one for beginners; like everything he writes, it is not easy. If you find something lacking in my puff, that is why. To the serious student, the book can’t be too highly commended.

Yrs sincerely
Bertrand Russell.
