Charles Sanders Peirce (1839--1914) has often been referred to as
one of the most important North American philosophers, but the real
extent of his philosophical importance is only now beginning to
emerge. Peirce's pragmaticism' (his own term) may provide the key
to an epistemological theory which avoids both the Scylla of
foundationalism and the Charybdis of relativism. Peirce's Logic',
linked to a conception of knowledge and of science, is increasingly
coming to be recognised as the only possible one. In Living Doubt,
26 papers are presented by some of the world's leading
philosophers, demonstrating the rich and cosmopolitan variety of
approach to Peirce's epistemology. The contributions are grouped
under three general headings: Knowledge, truth and the pragmatic
principle; Peirce and the epistemological tradition; and Knowledge,
language and semeiotic.
