[Matt · Rating 4 out of 5]

A nice anthology of the works of not only Peirce, James, and Dewey, but early critics of pragmatism (Russell, Moore) and later analytic philosophers inspired in part by pragmatist themes (Quine, Reichenbach, Putnam, Sellars). Having only been introduced to Dewey prior to this, I am much more interested in reading the works of Peirce as well as Putnam, particularly in the field of the philosophy of science and mathematics.

An excellent anthology of Pragmatist work both early and later uses as well as some early criticism. A fantastic starting point for anyone (mostly) new to pragmatism (as I was).
