Charles Peirce and Modern Science

Autor T L Short
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 apr 2024
This book interprets Peirce's writings as informed by the spirit of modern science – systematic inquiry, not system-building – thus mitigating their notorious difficulties. It shows that Peirce's experimental work expanded empiricism, subverting the fact/value dichotomy. And it describes Peirce's ironic opposition of modern science to modernity.

Recenzii

'T. L. Short's book is an enormously important contribution to Peirce scholarship that masterfully weaves together many different strands from Peirce's writings to present a rich, detailed, and tightly argued account of his view of science, his work as a scientist, and how that view and that work informed, motivated, and nourished his philosophy. Even the most knowledgeable Peirce scholars will come away from Short's book with a deeper understanding of familiar ideas and doctrines–like Peirce's pragmatism, realism, phenomenology, view of the normative sciences, etc.–and how they relate to each other and to Peirce's life as a working scientist.'
