Né en 1926 à Chicago, Hilary Putnam est l'une des grandes figures de la philosophie contemporaine, dont l'œuvre diversifiée traverse la philosophie des mathématiques, des sciences, de l'esprit et du langage, mais également l'éthique et la métaphysique. Critique de l'empirisme logique, ne cessant d'affiner son réalisme interne, Putnam s'est peu à peu rapproché du pragmatisme, qui constitue à ses yeux la meilleure parade, théorique et pratique, au relativisme. C'est cet itinéraire que l'on retrace ici. La finesse de la lecture des pragmatistes classiques - Peirce, James, Dewey, ou encore Wittgenstein ainsi que l'extension proposée du concept de pragmatisme permettent d'apprécier la fécondité et l'ambivalence de l'œuvre de Putnam mais aussi de l'un des courants philosophiques majeurs du XXe siècle

This book is a defense of modal realism; the thesis that our world is but one of a plurality of worlds, and that the individuals that inhabit our world are only a few out of all the inhabitants of all the worlds. Lewis argues that the philosophical utility of modal realism is a good reason for believing that it is true
