I am currently doing a paper for my Philosophy class and I am in need of a little help. For those of you who are familiar with the subject, I would greatly appreciate it if someone could explain Charles Peirce’s four approaches to philosophy a little better. I am not totally getting what the book is saying and it’s leaving me very confused. I’ve looked online but can’t seem to find anything on the subject either, so if anyone has links that would be very helpful too. I know the approaches are: method of tendency, method of authority, priori (method of intuition), and method of science, which I know he favored. But other than that I am a little lost. Thanks for the help!

I wish I could help, but my only brush with formal instruction in philosophy was a 101 freshman class at the University of Georgia many years ago. I don't remember much of it except that the teacher kept asking us whether some object or the other, like a chair, was still there when he closed his eyes. I thought he was borderline insane, but, then, what do I know?
