About The Book

William James's influential collection of essays demonstrating his clear theories for a pragmatic conception of truth. Now in a digestible, pocket format for the modern reader.

A clear, accessible introduction to modern and American thought by the influentual philosopher, psychologist, educator and author William James. This is a new, compact edition of one the most important pillars of modern philosophy. James' foundational work defines the move from the heritage of European thinking with its abstractions and theoretical absolutes, to an energetic mode of philosophy based on facts and power, one more suited to the rising dominance of America through the 20th Century.

The FLAME TREE Foundations series features core publications which together have shaped the cultural landscape of the modern world, with cutting-edge research distilled into pocket guides designed to be both accessible and informative.
