"What's the use of calling pragmatism a variant of Kant's project and, in turn, what's the use of identifying Kant as a proto-pragmatist? This volume is, in fact, a contribution to a long-standing and ever-widening tradition of hermeneutic engagement and critical appropriation. It is certainly admirable in its detail of argumentation, if not its originality. It advances the cause of that tradition, in suggestive and illuminating ways."--Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
"Together, these thirteen articles do an admirable job demonstrating the complexity and relevance of the pragmatist-Kant connection." -- Jared Kemling, Southern Illinois University Carbondale, William James Studies
