Logicism: Products, An example of a logicist construction of the natural numbers: Russell's construction in the Principia & Intent, or goal, of logicism

In philosophy of mathematics, logicism is a school of thought comprising one or more of the theses that – for some coherent meaning of 'logic' – mathematics is an extension of logic, some or all of mathematics is reducible to logic, or some or all of mathematics may be modelled in logic. Bertrand Russell and Alfred North Whitehead championed this…
