In 1934, Paul Weiss, an American philosopher, the founder of The Review of Metaphysics, and the Metaphysical Society of America, called Charles Peirce "the most original and versatile of American philosophers and America's greatest logician".
In 1943, Webster's Biographical Dictionary added Charles Peirce’s introduction as "now regarded as the most original thinker and greatest logician of his time."
Max Fisch, a well-known writer of identity, individuality, responsibility, morality, and political commitment, commented Charles Peirce as the follow:
“Who is the most original and the most versatile intellect that the Americas have so far produced? The answer Charles S. Peirce is uncontested, because any second would be so far behind as not to be worth nominating. He was mathematician, astronomer, chemist, geodesist, surveyor, cartographer, metrologist, spectroscopist, engineer, inventor; psychologist, philologist, lexicographer, historian of science, mathematical economist, lifelong student of medicine; book reviewer, dramatist, actor, short story writer; phenomenologist, semiotician, logician, rhetorician and metaphysician.”
Without any doubt, Charles Peirce is in the row of the best minds with Henry George, William James, Thorstein Veblen, and Ludwig Wittgenstein.
In 1896, Charles Peirce published his paper to elaborate his view of the relationship between religion and science A NEGLECTED ARGUMENT FOR THE REALITY OF GOD. Peirce insisted that the reality of God makes sense of the whole scientific enterprise. The belief in God is the rational instinct. In this paper, Peirce further argued that scientific research is a collective and collaborative activity of a group of persons who were devoured by a desire to find things out and who are motivated by the sincere desire to find out the truth. He asserted that Science is a living historic entity and a living and growing body of truth.
This is a must-read book to understand the foundational thought of Philosophy, Religion, Logic, and Science by Charles Peirce, one of the greatest philosophers and logicians in the world.
