In this book, Michael R. Slater provides a new assessment of
pragmatist views in the philosophy of religion. Focusing on the
tension between naturalist and anti-naturalist versions of
pragmatism, he argues that the anti-naturalist religious views of
philosophers such as William James and Charles Peirce provide a
powerful alternative to the naturalism and secularism of later
pragmatists such as John Dewey and Richard Rorty. Slater first
examines the writings of the 'classical pragmatists' - James,
Peirce, and Dewey - and argues for the relevance of their views for
thinking about such topics as the nature of religion and the
viability of natural theology. His final three chapters engage with
the religious views of later pragmatists such as Rorty and Philip
Kitcher, and with current philosophical debates over metaphysical
realism, naturalism, and evidentialism. His book will be of
particular interest to philosophers of religion, theologians, and
specialists in American philosophy.
