WILLIAM JAMES (1842-1910) was an American philosopher and psychologist who wrote widely on many topics, including epistemology, education, metaphysics, religion, and mysticism. He was the best known and most influential American thinker of his time, and the first educator to offer a psychology course in the United States, earning him the title "Father of American psychology." Along with Charles Sanders Peirce, James established the philosophical school known as pragmatism. His writing is clear, energetic, and unpretentious, and is marked by a devotion to literary excellence he shared with his brother, Henry James. James's emphasis on the creative power of faith, will, and action; his fascination with alternative forms of belief and states of consciousness; and his impatience with dogmas of any kind all made him an eloquent defender of individual experience and earned him a place beside Emerson and Whitman as an exponent of American democratic culture. PSYCHOLOGY: BRIEFER COURSE (1892) is more than a shortened version of his monumental and groundbreaking PRINCIPLES OF PSYCHOLOGY (1890). It significantly revised parts of the earlier work and added important new materials (students liked to call the longer book "James" and the shorter one "Jimmy.") James's new psychology moved away from discussions of the soul, morality, and logic, and focused instead on instinct, will, and the importance of action and habit. In THE WILL TO BELIEVE (1897), he advanced the argument that each of us has the right to believe in hypotheses that are not susceptible to proof, and that such beliefs might actually change the world. The conversational style of his essays reflected their origin in public lectures, as well as James's conviction that truth can be discovered as much in the course of everyday life as in the activities of science or of philosophical speculation. THE VARIETIES OF RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE (1902) marked the culmination of James's interest in the psychology of religion and explored "the very inner citadel of human life" by focusing on intensely religious individuals of different cultures and eras. With insight, compassion, and open-mindedness, he examined and assessed their beliefs, seeking to measure religion's value by its contributions to individual human lives. In PRAGMATISM (1907) James suggested that the conflicting metaphysical positions of "tender-minded" rationalism and "tough-minded" empiricism be judged by examining their actual consequences. Philosophy, he argued, should free itself from unexamined principles and closed systems and confront reality with complete openness. A PLURALISTIC UNIVERSE (1909) rejected the concept of the absolute and called on philosophers to respond to "the real concrete sensible flux of life." His essays on the empirical and pragmatic method were collected after his death and published as ESSAYS IN RADICAL EMPIRICISM (1912). James's work has influenced philosophers and academics such as Émile Durkheim, W. E. B. Du Bois, Edmund Husserl, Bertrand Russell, Ludwig Wittgenstein, and Richard Rorty.
