查爾斯桑德斯皮爾士（，；中文常譯為皮爾斯或帕爾斯，實際讀音為，同 purse，更接近 珀斯）是美國的哲學家、邏輯學家、數學家，被尊為 實用主義之父。伯特蘭羅素曾寫道：他是十九世紀後期最有獨創性的思想家之一，當然也是有史以來最偉大的美國思想家。 生平 1839 年生於馬薩諸塞州坎布里奇，早年在哈佛大學接受教育，後任教於霍普金斯大學。 皮爾士在其一生中被很大程度上忽視了，直到第二次世界大戰對他的研究文獻仍很缺乏。他的很多鉅著仍未出版中譯本。他是數學、研究方法論、科學哲學、知識論和形而上學領域中的改革者，他自認為首先是邏輯學家。儘管他主要對形式邏輯做出重要貢獻，他的「邏輯」所含蓋的很多內容現在被稱做了科學哲學和知識論。他發現並建立了作為符號學分支的邏輯學，他發現邏輯運算可以用電子開關電路完成，因此預見了電子計算機。 他被威廉詹姆士認為是美國當代實用主義的奠基人。 參見 皮爾士符號學理論 邏輯矩陣 數學心理學 語用學 關係代數 抽象代數 真值表 參考資料 Anellis IH 1995 Peirce Rustled Russell Pierced How Charles Peirce and Bertrand Russell Viewed Each Others Work in Logic and an Assessment of Russells Accuracy and Role in the Historiography of Logic Eprint Modern Logic 5 270328 Aristotle，The Categories Harold P Cooke trans pp 1109 in Aristotle Volume 1 Loeb Classical Library。London William Heinemann，1938 Aristotle On Interpretation Harold P Cooke trans pp 111179 in Aristotle Volume 1 Loeb Classical Library London William Heinemann 1938 Aristotle Prior Analytics， Hugh Tredennick trans pp 181531 in Aristotle Volume 1 Loeb Classical Library London William Heinemann 1938 Boole George 1854 An Investigation of the Laws of Thought on Which are Founded the Mathematical Theories of Logic and Probabilities Macmillan。Reprinted 1958 with corrections New York Dover Publications。 Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy： Atkin Albert 2006 Peirces Theory of Signs Brent Joseph 1998 Charles Sanders Peirce A Life Revised and enlarged edition Indiana University Press Bloomington IN Burch Robert 2001 Charles Sanders Peirce Revised Winter 2005 Dewey John 1910 How We Think Lexington MA DC Heath。Reprinted 1991 Buffalo NY Prometheus Books Haack Susan 1998 Manifesto of a Passionate Moderate Chicago IL University of Chicago Press Houser Nathan 1989 The Fortunes and Misfortunes of the Peirce Papers Fourth Congress of the International Association for Semiotic Studies Perpignan France 1989 Published pp 12591268 in Signs of Humanity vol 3 Michel Balat and Janice DeledalleRhodes eds Gérard Deledalle gen ed Mouton de Gruyter Berlin Germany 1992 Liddell Henry George，and Scott Robert 1889 An Intermediate GreekEnglish Lexicon Oxford UK Oxford University Press。Reprinted 1991 Mac Lane Saunders 1971 Categories for the Working Mathematician New York SpringerVerlag。Second edition 1998 Peirce CS 1877 The Fixation of Belief Popular Science Monthly 12 115 Reprinted CP 5358387 Peirce CS 1878 How to Make Our Ideas Clear Popular Science Monthly 12 286302 Reprinted CP 5388410 Peirce CS 1899 FRL First Rule of Logic unpaginated manuscript Reprinted CP 1135140 Peirce CS Application of CS Peirce to the Executive Committee of the Carnegie Institution July 15 1902 Published in Eisele Carolyn ed 1976 Parts of Carnegie Application L75 in The New Elements of Mathematics by Charles S Peirce Vol 4 Mathematical Philosophy The Hague Netherlands Mouton Publishers 1373 Eprint version edited by Joseph Ransdell Peirce CS 1992 The Essential Peirce Selected Philosophical Writings Vol 1 18671893 Nathan Houser and Christian Kloesel eds Bloomington and Indianapolis IN Indiana University Press Peirce CS 1998 The Essential Peirce Selected Philosophical Writings Volume 2 18931913 Peirce Edition Project eds Bloomington and Indianapolis IN Indiana University Press Robin Richard S 1967 Annotated Catalogue of the Papers of Charles S Peirce Amherst MA University of Massachusetts Press Taylor Barry N ed 2001 The International System of Units NIST Special Publication 330 Washington DC Superintendent of Documents van Heijenoort Jean 1967 Logic as Language and Logic as Calculus Synthese 17 32430 Category 美國數學家 Category 美國哲學家 Category 美國邏輯學家 Category 大地測量學家 Category 約翰斯霍普金斯大學校友 Category 形而上學學者 Category 美國聖公宗教徒 Category 格理論學家 Category 模態邏輯學家 Category 批判理論家
