American Philosophy & Pragmatism audiobooks
Self-reliance, experience and ideas judged by what they do.
America's own philosophical tradition, from Ralph Waldo Emerson's essays and Henry David Thoreau's Walden to the pragmatists: William James on belief, truth and experience, and John Dewey on thinking, education and democracy, with George Santayana and Josiah Royce alongside. Practical, personal and still the backbone of how Americans argue about ideas.
