Description: Illustrations of the Logic of Science, Paperback by Peirce, Charles S.; De Waal, Cornelis (EDT), ISBN 0812698495, ISBN-13 9780812698497, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the US Several important essays by one of the giants in the philosophy of science, one of the originators of pragmatism in philosophy, Charles S. Peirce are finally gathered under one cover, and placed in context. Often read separately, the two key works--The Fixation of Belief and How to Make Our Ideas Clear are here presented as the first two in a series of six essays that develop the concepts further, rounded out by three more general essays--perhaps more in nature of ruminations rather than rigorously argued pieces, but still illustrative of Peirce's mind and approach. An introduction and extensive notes by Cornelius de Waal (Philosophy, Indiana, Purdue) elucidate both Peirce's general goals and his approach. This is a wonderful introduction to Peirce, and clearly demonstrates the breadth of his contributions to logic, mathematics, and scientific methodology.
