- Summary:
- The philosophy of Charles Sanders Peirce is important at every stage of the history of modern American thought. This work explains that one concern with the idea of fallibilism is that it might all too easily slide into skepticism, and this would undermine the project of making Peirce's fallibilism the linchpin for any realistic pragmatism.
