RE: The quote is pure American pragmatism

C.S. Peirce was indeed the first pragmatist who made the connection between beliefs, consequences and action. He heavily influenced James, who tried to help him in his rocky professional career.

Pierce's work in the theory of signs and logic was path-breaking, but I couldn't stay awake!

If you like biographies, you might be interested in a relatively new biography of Wm. James, William James: In the Maelstrom of American Modernism by Robert Richardson.
