Principia Mathematica

Honestly that stuff seems unnecessary.
What's the point?

It's almost like mathmeticians like to make math seem more complicated than it is, validating their life's (waste) work.

So this I had a look at the book.
This is the second volume.
Like 700 pages of this.
What the fuck.

Too bad they chose to use retard language of symbols (like stone age people did before inventing words), instead of the more developed, expressful, simple, and powerful language called "english"

Here is a better proof for "1+1=2"
>Take an apple
>Take another apple
>You now have two apples

There. Much better. Shits on Bernard whatever was this faggots name.

The problem is that the entire page doesn't *mean* anything. It's just collection of symbols the writer understands; it's not communication. Fucking retarded writer should hammer his balls with a chainsaw.

>surprised a math book uses math notation
>math notation is useless

English is superior communicating tool than mathematical language for all concepts, as you are well aware, if you weren't trolling.

>>if you weren't trolling
>the entire community of mathematics and science is trolling
nice trolling

Russell and Whitehead were trying lay down an entire system to prove all of mathematics. They put over a decade of work into this masterpiece. Certainly no one should try and read all of it or attempt to learn logic from it, but it is sure a nice piece of history in mathematics and philosophy.

Have some respect for giants such as Bertrand Russell.
