Charles Sanders Peirce (1839-1914) was one of the United States most original and profound thinkers, and a prolific writer. Peirce s game theory-based approaches to the semantics and pragmatics of signs and language, to the theory of communication, and to the evolutionary emergence of signs, provide a toolkit for contemporary scholars and philosophers. Drawing on unpublished manuscripts, the book offers a rich, fresh picture of the achievements of a remarkable man."
