Charles Peirce, the founder of pragmatism, was a thinker of
extraordinary depth and range - he wrote on philosophy,
mathematics, psychology, physics, logic, phenomenology, semiotics,
religion and ethics - but his writings are difficult and
fragmentary. This book provides a clear and comprehensive
explanation of Peirce's thought. His philosophy is presented as a
systematic response to 'nominalism', the philosophy which he most
despised and which he regarded as the underpinning of the dominant
philosophical worldview of his time. The book explains Peirce's
challenge to nominalism as a theory of meaning and shows its
implications for his views of knowledge, truth, the nature of
reality, and ethics. It will be essential reading both for Peirce
scholars and for those new to his work.
