A comparison of post-World War 2 analytic philosophy in America to the early figures in analytic, continental, and pragmatist philosophy. 

Tracing the pragmatist lineage of Quine's analytic philosophy and his emphasis on naturalism. However, Quinean philosophy lacks pragmatism's emphasis on social engagement.
