John Lachs, one of American philosophy's most distinguished
interpreters, turns to William James, Josiah Royce, Charles S.
Peirce, John Dewey, and George Santayana to elaborate stoic
pragmatism, or a way to live life within reasonable limits. Stoic
pragmatism makes sense of our moral obligations in a world driven
by perfectionist human ambition and unreachable standards of
achievement. Lachs proposes a corrective to pragmatist amelioration
and stoic acquiescence by being satisfied with what is good enough.
This personal, yet modest, philosophy offers penetrating insights
into the American way of life and our human character. -- Indiana
