The comparative method is commonly employed in fields such as literature and law, but less frequently is it used in philosophy. In these pages, Philip E. Davis uses a systematically comparative approach to present and consider multiple perspectives on a subject almost simultaneously-and does so in an accessible and entertaining way that employs the words and ideas of four of American history's prominent thinkers, who he demonstrates to be pragmatists. What am I? Is life worth living? What are the optimal circumstances for telling a lie? Davis explores these and many more of the questions and issues that arise from being human, in a manner that expands the mind and pushes the boundaries of daily thinking. For example, his chapter on one's sense of place breaks the boundaries of the five senses to demonstrate that humans have names for many more, such as the sense of justice, sense of pride, and sense of humor. By the book's end, readers can expect to not only have learned much more about these iconic historical figures but to also better understand themselves, what they think about life, and how they interact with the world.
