What is truth? What makes an idea valuable? In Pragmatism, pioneering psychologist and philosopher William James offers a bold alternative to rigid rationalism and abstract idealism: a philosophy rooted in experience, action, and practical consequences. First delivered as a series of lectures in 1906–1907, Pragmatism presents a dynamic, evolving view of truth—not as something fixed and eternal, but as something that works in real life. For James, ideas are tools; their meaning and value lie in their capacity to guide action and solve problems. Clear, engaging, and refreshingly down-to-earth, this landmark work reshaped American philosophy and continues to influence thinkers across disciplines. Whe

Whether you`re new to philosophy or returning with fresh eyes, Pragmatism is a provocative and rewarding exploration of how we think, believe, and live. “The true is the name of whatever proves itself to be good in the way of belief.”
