Abstract
This thesis is concerning a mathematical problem,
Russell's Paradox. What I have done with this problem is researched it
throughly and attempted to find its solution. While during this, I also
had to investigate Cantor's theory (the origin of Russell's Paradox)
and three philosphies: Logicism, Intuitionism, and Formalism. Cantor's
theory deals with sets in the infinite and the three philosphies are
each a different mathematics that attempts to stay clear of
contradictions such as Russell Paradox. After extensive research I
chose Logicism to he the best solution. It is not the complete
solution, yet it is the best one that I believe works.
