Description

"Realism and Pragmatic Epistemology explores the ways we use knowledge and how it is the successful application of knowledge that at once substantiates and objectifies the things we believe we know." "It addresses the core idea of Nicholas Rescher's work in epistemology : that functional and pragmatic concerns exert a controlling influence on the conduct of rational inquiry and on the ways in which we can and should regard its products."--Jacket.
