From Nature to Experience: The American Search for Cultural Authority - American Intellectual Culture
Roger Lundin
Traces how pragmatism and its reliance on experience eclipsed nature and religion as the ultimate moral authority. The author explores why Americans prize experience as highly as they do, what they build out of it in works of culture and their daily lives, and where people might turn when they reach the limits of experience.
