"The Meaning of Truth" by William James is a philosophical exploration of the nature of truth and its role in human life. James argues that truth is not a static, absolute concept, but rather a dynamic and evolving process that is shaped by the experiences and perspectives of individual human beings. He proposes a pragmatic theory of truth, which emphasizes the practical consequences of beliefs and actions rather than their correspondence to an objective reality. Throughout the book, James engages with the ideas of other philosophers, including Plato, Kant, and Hegel, and critiques their views on truth. He also examines the implications of his pragmatic theory for various areas of inquiry, such as religion, science, and morality. James ultimately suggests that the pursuit of truth should be seen as a vital part of human life, as it enables individuals to better understand and navigate the world around them. Read in English, unabridged.
