Pragmatism by D.L. Murray is a comprehensive introduction to the philosophical movement of pragmatism. The book explores the history, theories, and key figures of pragmatism, including Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, and John Dewey. Murray examines the central tenets of pragmatism, such as the rejection of absolute truth and the importance of practical consequences in determining the value of ideas. The author also discusses the impact of pragmatism on various fields, including psychology, education, and politics. This book is an accessible and informative guide for anyone interested in understanding the principles and influence of pragmatism.To begin with, we must radically disabuse our minds of the idea that thinking starts from certainty.

In real life thought starts from perplexities, from situations in which, as Professor Dewey says, beliefs have to be 'reconstructed, ' and it aims at setting doubts at rest. It is psychologically impossible for a rational mind to assert what it knows to be true, and supposes everyone else to admit the truth of.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
