Nathan Houser studies philosophy, focusing especially on the ideas of the American philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce and the tradition of pragmatism (a school of thought that ties the meaning of ideas to their practical consequences). His work also engages semiotics (the study of signs and meaning), theories of mind and cognition, and how people form and fix beliefs.
