Hardly a club in the conventional sense, the organization referred to in the title of this superb literary hybridpart history, part biography, part philosophy consisted of four members and probably existed for less than nine months. Yet its impact upon American intellectual life remains incalculable. Louis Menand masterfully weaves pivotal late 19thand early 20thcentury events, colorful biographical anecdotes, and abstract ideas into a narrative whole that both enthralls and enlightens.The Metaphysical Club is a compellingly vital account of how the cluster of ideas that came to be called pragmatism was forged from the searing experiences of its progenitors lives. Here are Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, and John Dewey, all of them giants of American thought made colloquially accessible both as human beings and as intellects.
