Hilary Putnam is one of the most famous and influential living philosophers. In
Hilary Putnam: Pragmatism and Realism , Putnam responds to ten new papers exam-
ining his central ideas, written by highly respected Putnam scholars especially
for this volume.
Putnam’s work touches on almost every area of interest in contemporary Anglo-
American philosophy. His ideas have had repercussions in the philosophy of
language and the philosophy of mind, as well as countless areas of metaphysics.
Many of Putnam’s most influential ideas can be traced back to his two key commit-
ments: to pragmatism and to realism. In this book, well-known top scholars
examine these two fundamental positions and their place in Putnam’s work. In
addition to responding to each paper, there is a new essay by Putnam himself on
pragmatism and nonscientific knowledge.
The insight into Putnam’s work provided by the contributions to his work,
combined with Putnam’s extensive and detailed responses, make this essential
reading for anyone with an interest in the ideas and influence of Hilary Putnam.
