Resumen:
In an article originally written as a ?letter to the Editor,? Peirce remarks that what distinguishes his pragmatism from that of James is that James regards percepts as signs. Peirce?s claim synthesizes his new achievements in semiotics as well as his long-term reflections on James? psychology. Peirce will object that James? interpretation of the perceptual process as a case of association cannot account for perceptual judgment. As I intend to show, Peirce?s disagreement with James on this issue reflects more profound disagreements concerning perception and its cognitive role.
