About this ebook

'The Problem of China' is a historical and educational book by famed philosopher and Nobel Literature Prize laureate Bertrand Russell. In 1920, he spent a year in China as Professor of Philosophy at the University of Peking (later Beijing). His lectures on mathematical logic and philosophy were well received there including by Mao Tse Tung, who attended some of Russell's talks. Written at a time when China was largely viewed by the West as under-developed, The Problem of China sees Russell make his prediction that "China, by her resources and her population, is capable of being the greatest power in the world after the United States."
