I just finished reading one book of various essays written by Russell, under the Title, "Why I am not a Christian and other essays". It was compiled in the mid to late 50s though. It also gets into why he wasn't allowed to teach college in NY, following his essay, "Feedom and the Colleges". For the most part I liked the essays, but there were a couple I found uninteresting. All in all they have given me the desire to read more of Russell's work. Peace OOT
