Index."Publisher Marketing: Charles Sanders Peirce (1893-1914) has often been referred to as one of the most important North American philosophers, but the real extent of his philosophical importance is only now beginning to emerge. Peirce's pragmaticism (his own term) may provide the key to an epistemological theory which avoids both the Scylla of foundationalism and the Charybdis of relativism. Peirce's Logic, linked to a conception of knowledge and of science, is increasingly coming to be recognized as the only possible one.
