This book interprets Peirce's writings as informed by the spirit of modern science â systematic inquiry, not system-building â thus mitigating their notorious difficulties. It shows that Peirce's experimental work expanded empiricism, subverting the fact/value dichotomy. And it describes Peirce's ironic opposition of modern science to modernity.
