title: Collected Papers of Charles Sanders Peirce, Vol. 7: Science and Philosophy / Vol. 8: Reviews, Correspondence and Bibliography (Volume VIII)
author: Charles Sanders Peirce
description: Represents an astounding amount of hard work on the part of the compilers, and is edited with an intelligence and precision that would make it a high-water mark in American bookmaking from that standpoint alone. (<i>New York Herald Tribune</i>)<br /><br />No one can fail to be grateful for the thorough and patient intelligence which has made Peirce's work so available. (<i>The Nation</i>)<br /><br />Massive, original, and profound. (<i>The Philosophical Review.</i>)<br /><br />What professional philosophy needs at the present time is new and fresh imagination...I do not know of any other thinker more calculated than Peirce to give emancipation from the intellectual fortifications of the past and to arouse a fresh imagination. (John Dewey)
