Pragmatism, Reason, and Norms cover

This collection of essays examines the issue of norms and social practices both in epistemology and in moral and social philosophy. The contributors examine the issue across an unprecedented range of issues, including epistemology (realism, perception, testimony), logic, education, foundations of morality, philosophy of law, the pragmatic account of norms and their justification, and the pragmatic character of reason itself.

"Pragmatism, Reason, & Norms is a fine collection of essays published in honor of the work of the American philosopher Frederick L. Will. The publication of this volume is to be applauded." "Pragmatism, Reason, & Norms is well worth reading, especially for those who are interested in what pragmatism can contribute to contemporary moral theory." -International Studies in Philosophy
