Book Description:

A sequel to "Pragmatism", it argues that objective truth exists, but it can only be known in terms of experience, and that truth isn't 'out there' waiting to be discovered. It also argues that knowledge derives from a process of inquiring in which a chain of mental and physical intermediaries connect thought and things.
