The Origins of Pragmatism: Studies in the Philosophy of Charles Sanders Peirce and William James (review)

Abstract

This work represents an attempt of the author to make up his own mind as to what peirce and james meant as well as to develop his own theories on some of the main issues which they raise. pragmatism is considered primarily as a theory of knowledge which interprets it in terms of verification by experience. the ethical and religious applications of pragmatism do not receive very much attention.
