Summary

The core of pragmatism lies in the concept of functional efficacy-of utility in short. And epistemic pragmatism accordinglyfocuses on the utility of our devices and practices in relation tothe aims and purposes of the cognitive enterprise-answeringquestions, resolving puzzlement, and guiding action. The presentbook revolves around this theme. All papers in this book bear onepistemological topics, which have preoccupied Nicholas Rescherfor many years. Much as with the thematic structure of this book,this interest expanded from an initial concern with the exact sciences,to encompass the epistemology of the human sciences,and ultimately the epistemology of philosophy itself.
