It focuses especially ion the contributions of Charles Sanders Peirce, Charles Morris, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Karl-Otto Apel, and Jurgen Habermas to an integrative pragmatic theory. Arens offers a comprehensive study of Habermas's and Apel's competing claims to provide the foundations for pragmatics and also discusses the challenges posed to Apel and Habermas by the emergence of American neo-pragmatism. His book should be of interest to graduate students and specialists in philosophy, communication, language, social theory, ethics, theology and the history of thought.
