"Essays in Philosophy" brings together twenty-one essays, reviews,
and occasional pieces published by James between 1876 and 1910.
They range in subject from a concern with the teaching of
philosophy and appraisals of philosophers to analyses of important
problems.
Several of the essays, like "The Sentiment of Rationality" and
"The Knowing of Things Together," are of particular significance in
the development of the views of James's later works. All of them,
as John McDermott says in his Introduction, are in a style that is
"engaging and personal...witty, acerbic, compassionate, and
polemical." Whether he is writing an article for the "Nation" of a
definition of "Experience" for Baldwin's "Dictionary" or "The Mad
Absolute" for the "Journal of Philosophy," James is always
unmistakably himself, and always readable.
