This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

Eight lectures delivered by William James at the Lowell Institute and Columbia University in 1906-1907, presenting pragmatism as a method for settling philosophical disputes and a theory of truth. James argues that the value of any idea lies in its practical consequences — that truth is not a static property but something that happens to an idea when it proves useful. Witty, conversational, and provocative, this is the founding text of American pragmatism.
