Trade Review
"The volume makes a timely contribution to current Peirce scholarship." -- -Shannon Dea University of Waterloo "This is an outstanding work of scholarship, an important contribution to the now significant body of secondary literature devoted to the philosophy of Charles S. Peirce. The intellectual range of the book is truly impressive, and yet the attention to Peirce's realism throughout supplies an important thread of continuity." -- -Michael L. Raposa Lehigh University "These are all sophisticated philosophical essays devoted, some primarily to the interpretation and others to the extension of, the ideas of one of America's most difficult thinkers." -- -Michael L. Raposa Lehigh University
