Peirce's Quest for Truth

Peirce’s Quest for Truth is the idea that scientists and thinkers continually seek the most accurate understanding of reality through inquiry. He believed that truth is what would ultimately be agreed upon if knowledge were pursued indefinitely without bias. While individual opinions may fluctuate, persistent investigation aims to reach an eventual consensus, aligning with the way nature truly is. Peirce saw this process as a never-ending journey toward greater certainty, where the pursuit of truth is driven by curiosity, evidence, and the scientific method.
