Faced with criticisms by reviewers that previous writings for the general public had been too difficult, British philosopher Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) responded with the title of this collection of essays, reasoning that because "there are several sentences in the present volume which some unusually stupid children of ten might find a little puzzling," than he could not call them popular; and if not popular, then unpopular. In the eleven essays, Russell defends his liberal political principles and cultural values, including the values of intellectual freedom, political democracy, judicial impartiality, scientific progress, social charity, and personal tolerance. This is a paperbound edition of a work first published in 1950. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
