Philip Jourdain
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Philip Edward Bertrand Jourdain (1879-1919) was a British logician and follower of Bertrand Russell.
He was partly disabled by Friedreich's ataxia. He corresponded with Georg Cantor and Gottlob Frege, and took a close interest in the paradoxes related to Russell's paradox, formulating the card paradox version of the liar paradox. He also worked on algebraic logic, and the history of science with Isaac Newton as a particular study. He was London editor for The Monist.
