Charles Sanders Peirce: A Life
Perhaps the most important mind the United States has ever produced, Peirce lived from 1839 to 1914, and he made significant contributions as a mathematician, astronomer, chemist, engineer and inventor. He was also a psychologist, a student of medicine and, above all, a philosopher--often compared to Plato and Aristotle. Now Brent details his amazing, tormented life. 35 photos.
