The Philosophy of C.I. Lewis
(Volume XIII, 1968)
The present volume on C.I. Lewis offers a comprehensive and definitive study of his thought by 26 distinguished contemporary scholars. The essays by his critics range over the entire breadth of Lewis' philosophy, and in his Replies to his Critics, Lewis restates and clarifies his own views clearly and incisively.
Lewis' autobiography is a contribution to the history of American philosophy of the first order. Not only does it bring back for us the living personality of a great and modest person, but it throws a flood of light on his philosophy.
