Hilary Putnam was Cogan University Professor, Emeritus, at Harvard University.
In this bold, energetic, and extensive work, Putnam undertakes a
revitalization of philosophy. He wants to put philosophy back in
touch with the ‘human issues which it has always been philosophy’s
highest goal to articulate’… This is exciting and engaging stuff,
and anyone with an interest in philosophy, at whatever level, will
enjoy it and learn from it.
*Times Literary Supplement*
Putnam has become a thinker to be reckoned with in the humanities,
and Renewing Philosophy should provide the best approach to his
thought.
