Full Description
This new release of the classic text Pragmatism is absolutely timely. James' seminal statement of pragmatism's underpinnings and its treatment of essential philosophical questions (the nature of truth; the one and the many; free will; etc.) could not come at a more appropriate time. In a "post-truth" era of fake news, alternative facts, and a belief that ""truth isn't truth,"" James' presentation of pragmatism as a method of adjudicating truth-claims is a must-read.
