Science, Community, and the Transformation of American Philosophy, 1860-1930 Hardcover - 1990 - 1st Edition
by Daniel J. Wilson
From the rear cover
The twentieth-century obsession with meaning often fails to address the central questions: Why are we here? Where are we going? In this radical critique of modernity, Eugene Rochberg-Halton resurrects pragmatism, pushing it beyond its traditional formulations to meet these questions head-on.
