“This is a splendid collection of articles about the major
figures of the pragmatic tradition that also exhibits the vitality
and diversity of this living tradition. Essential reading for
anyone interested in the rich history, lively present debates, and
promising future of pragmatic themes.”
Richard J. Bernstein, New School for Social Research
“Unusually for an encyclopedic account, A Companion to
Pragmatism is not afraid to adopt a particular interpretive
approach. The introduction draws challenging conclusions about the
relative importance of Peirce, James, and Dewey, but both the major
figures covered and the themes developed in the book expand far
beyond this original triumvirate and demonstrate the vitality and
expansiveness of pragmatist philosophy.”
Charlene Haddock Seigfried, Purdue University
"The essays, though assuming some acquaintance with the
problems and history of philosophy, are clearly written and use a
minimum of jargon. A brief but excellent introduction . . . and a
good set of subject and name indexes complete the scholarly
apparatus. Recommended."
