Dear Unwin

Thank you for your letter, and for taking so much trouble on my behalf. I will take account of all your points.

It is by my wish that there is no advance payment. At the moment, thanks to the History, I am so rich that the main thing is to keep down super tax. This new book will have no comparable sales.

Best wishes for 1947.

Yours sincerely
Bertrand Russell.
