A Pragmatist Philosophy of History explores the ways in which a reckoning with history has always been central to the pragmatist tradition. By tracing the development of this theme in the work of figures both expected (such as Dewey) and unexpected (such as Addams), Marnie Binder offers a valuable new perspective on the work of the classical pragmatists.
