This exceptional graphic novel recounts the spiritual odyssey of philosopher Bertrand Russell. In his agonized search for absolute truth, Russell crosses paths with legendary thinkers like Gottlob Frege, David Hilbert, and Kurt Gödel, and finds a passionate student in the great Ludwig Wittgenstein. But his most ambitious goal--to establish unshakable logical foundations of mathematics-- continues to loom before him. Through love and hate, peace and war, Russell persists in the dogged mission that threatens to claim both his career and his personal happiness, finally driving him to the brink of insanity. This story is at the same time a historical novel and an accessible explication of some of the biggest ideas of mathematics and modern philosophy. With rich characterizations and expressive, atmospheric artwork, the book spins the pursuit of these ideas into a highly satisfying tale. Probing and ingeniously layered, the book throws light on Russell's inner struggles while setting them in the context of the timeless questions he spent his life trying to answer. At its heart, Logicomix is a story about the conflict between an ideal rationality and the unchanging, flawed fabric of reality. 546 Originally published in Greek: Athēna, Ikaros, 2008. 600 10 Russell, Bertrand,|d1872-1970|vComic books, strips, etc. 600 17 Russell, Bertrand,|d1872-1970.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00035776 650 0 Mathematicians|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 0 Philosophers|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 7 21.39 graphic arts: other.|0(NL-LeOCL)077595173|2bcl 650 7 Mathematicians.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01012154 650 7 Philosophers.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01060746 655 7 Biographical fiction.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01726537 655 7 Comics (Graphic works)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01921613 655 7 Graphic novels.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01726630 655 7 Comic books, strips, etc.|2gsafd 655 7 Graphic novels.|2lcgft 655 7 Biographical comics.|2lcgft 700 1 Papadimitriou, Christos H. 700 1 Papadatos, Alekos. 700 1 Di Donna, Annie. 914 MID.b19770881 994 C0|bCKE
