"I do not think I can contribute to it [the Einstein volume] as I am overwhelmed with work, both philosophical and political."

Dear Professor Schilpp
Thank you for your letter of July 31. I thought I had sufficiently expressed my satisfaction with the Russell volume before it was published; as this was not so, please accept my regrets.
I am glad you are getting on with the Einstein volume.1 I do not think I can contribute to it as I am overwhelmed with work, both philosophical and political. I certainly cannot do anything before next summer, and probably not then.
With all best wishes from us both,
Yours very sincerely
Bertrand Russell.
