Volumes I-VIII of the Collected Papers of Charles Sanders Peirce are being reissued in response to a growing interest in Peirce's thought--a development that was prophesied by John Dewey when he reviewed the first volume of these papers on their appearance in 1931. Writing in The New Republic, Mr. Dewey said , "Nothing much will happen in philosophy as long as a main object among philosophers is defense of some formulated historical position. I do not know of any other thinker more calculated than Peirce to give emanipation from the intellectual fortifications of the past and to arouse a fresh imagination."

Originally published as eight separate volumes, the Peirce papers appear in the new Belknap Press edition in four handsome books of two volumes each. The content is identical with that of the original edition: Volume I, Principals of Philosophy; Volume II, Elements of Logic; Volumes III, Exact Logic; Volumes IV, The Simplest Mathematics; Volumes V, Pragmatism and Pragmaticism; Volume VI, Scientific Metaphysics; Volume VII, Science and Philosophy; Volume VIII, Reviews, Correspondence, and Bibliography.

Product Description
Al examinar la figura de Peirce nos encontramos ante un hombre complejo, fascinante y nada convencional. Su pensamiento está empapado de originalidad, su vida estuvo dedicada constantemente a un trabajo creativo, científico o filosófico, y su personalidad aparece como la de un hombre creativo y diferente.
En su obra Peirce nos ofrece una teoría filosófica muy peculiar de la creatividad. A partir de él podemos proponer un nuevo modo de vivir, un modo en el que cuente la imaginación, en el que se busque lo razonable, en el que por tanto vivamos más hacia el futuro.

Not illustrated. Excerpt: Charles Sanders Peirce (pronounced purse) (September 10, 1839 April 19, 1914) was an American philosopher, logician, mathematician, and scientist, born in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Peirce was educated as a chemist and employed as a scientist for 30 years. It is largely his contributions to logic, mathematics, philosophy, and semiotics (and his founding of pragmatism) that are appreciated today. In 1934, the philosopher Paul Weiss called Peirce "the most original and versatile of American philosophers and America's greatest logician". An innovator in many fields including philosophy of science, epistemology, metaphysics, mathematics, statistics, research methodology, and the design of experiments in astronomy, geophysics, and psychology Peirce considered himself a logician first and foremost. He made major contributions to logic, but logic for him en...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=6117 ... Read more

Product Description
Esta obra corresponde a la solicitud de ayuda de Peirce a la Carnegie Institution en 1902 para su trabajo en lógica. Peirce presentó a la Carnegie Institution una solicitud de apoyo económico para ordenar sinópticamente su trabajo en lógica, inicialmente imaginado como tres pesados volúmenes, pero concebido finalmente como una colección de 36 "memorias" de diversas longitudes hasta alcanzar, aproximadamente, una extensión de un millón de palabras en total. Existen (por lo menos) cinco borradores preliminares más una versión final de la solicitud. El número total de páginas manuscritas existentes es aproximadamente de 459, y hay razones para pensar que se ha perdido parte del manuscrito. La versión final (que lleva un sello de recibido por la Carnegie Institution, con fecha 30 de julio de 1902) tiene 80 páginas. Para esta traducción me he servido de una reconstrucción analítica realizada por Joseph Ransdell. Este texto reviste especial interés para comprender el carácter sistemático del pensamiento de Peirce, pues las 36 memorias que proyectaba representan la manera en que se articulan en su pensamiento las diversas cuestiones y ciencias, formando un sistema completo.
