Ediciones Encuentro, S.A. El pragmatismo The Pragmatism
En los últimos años de su vida, Charles S. Peirce, el intelecto más original y versátil que América ha producido, retoma muchas cuestiones dentro de su evolución intelectual y trata de dar una forma definitiva al sistema de su pensamiento. En ese contexto se enmarcan los dos textos traducidos en este volumen: Qué es el pragmatismo (1905) y Pragmatismo (1908). Las revistas filosóficas de todo el mundo están ahora, como sabe, rebosando de pragmatismo y antipragmatismo. A menudo, sin embargo, se escuchan expresiones elocuentes pero poco sinceras que traicionan la completa incomprensión de este nuevo ingrediente del pensamiento de nuestro tiempo, de modo que acepto gustosamente su invitación para explicar qué es realmente el pragmatismo, cómo llegó a ser y hacia dónde tiende.

Indiana University Press Writings of Charles S. Peirce: A Chronological Edition, Volume 8: 1890–1892
Volume 8 of this landmark edition follows Peirce from May 1890 through July 1892—a period of turmoil as his career unraveled at the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. The loss of his principal source of income meant the beginning of permanent penury and a lifelong struggle to find gainful employment. His key achievement during these years is his celebrated Monist metaphysical project, which consists of five classic articles on evolutionary cosmology. Also included are reviews and essays from The Nation in which Peirce critiques Paul Carus, William James, Auguste Comte, Cesare Lombroso, and Karl Pearson, and takes part in a famous dispute between Francis E. Abbot and Josiah Royce. Peirce's short philosophical essays, studies in non-Euclidean geometry and number theory, and his only known experiment in prose fiction complete his production during these years.Peirce's 1883-1909 contributions to the Century Dictionary form the content of volume 7 which is forthcoming.

Indiana University Press Philosophy of Mathematics: Selected Writings
The philosophy of mathematics plays a vital role in the mature philosophy of Charles S. Peirce. Peirce received rigorous mathematical training from his father and his philosophy carries on in decidedly mathematical and symbolic veins. For Peirce, math was a philosophical tool and many of his most productive ideas rest firmly on the foundation of mathematical principles. This volume collects Peirce’s most important writings on the subject, many appearing in print for the first time. Peirce’s determination to understand matter, the cosmos, and "the grand design" of the universe remain relevant for contemporary students of science, technology, and symbolic logic.
