Pragmatism and Social Theory
The reviewer who indicates that this is not a good introduction to the thinkers in question is probably right - this book is best read with a fair amount of relevant reading under your belt. Personally, I think Kaufmann's analysis is brilliant and illuminating, but it is exactly that: Kaufmann's analysis, not merely an introduction to the thinkers in question.
