Summary: | <p>It is said that America came of age in-tellectually with the appearance of the pragmatic movement in philosophy. "Pragmatic Naturalism "presents a selec-tive and interpretative overview of this philosophy as developed in the writings of its intellectual founders and chief exponents--Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, George Herbert Mead, and John Dewey. Mr. Eames groups the leading ideas of these pragmatic natu-ralists around the general fields of "Na-ture and Human Life," "Knowledge," "Value," and "Education," treating the primary concerns and special emphasis of each philosopher to these issues. <p>Philosophy students, teachers of phi-losophy, and general readers will find this book a comprehensive overview of American philosophy. |
