Hilary Putnam is a leading American philosopher and an emeritus professor at Harvard University. He is the author of many books, including Pragmatism: An Open Question; Reason, Truth, and History; Renewing Philosophy; and The Threefold Cord: Mind, Body, and World. He lives in Chicago.
"Putnam provokes us in just the way philosophy should. . . . [He] does not offer a fine-tuning of a particular approach to specific theories. He provocatively heralds a new enlightenment in such a way that will doubtless spark criticisms from those who denounce any further enlightenment in favor of skeptical outlooks. Putnam has presented a viable alternative to the two dominant, though well-worn, philosophical movements of our day." --Eric Thomas Weber, Journal of Value Inquiry, on the English-language edition
