The following thirteen dialogues with Bertrand Russell were filmed for television during four and one-half days in the spring of 1959. No prepared script was used and no retakes were made, since Lord Russell insisted he was not an actor. His words were recorded on film - and in the pages of this book - as he first spoke them. Woodrow Wyatt, the interviewer throughout the entire series, has had considerable experience with the B.B.C. as a television commentator. He is currently a member of Parliament for the Labour Party.
