}John, list
Are you confining Peircean analysis to human constructs, ie,
'linguistics and psychology'?
I consider his work provides basic insights in the physico-chemical
and biological realms - as well as the societal. The notions of the
networked triadic semiosis, of the categorical modes of being, and of
the self-organized and asymmetric complex creativity enabled by these
categories, seems to me to be fundamental in these areas.

Jeff,
I believe that Peirce's insights in logic, semeiotic, diagrammatic
reasoning and their applications to linguistics and psychology are
extremely relevant for the 21st century. I summarized those
contributions in http://jfsowa.com/pubs/csp21st.pdf [1] . And I
would add more to that article along the lines of
http://jfsowa.com/pubs/ppe.pdf [2] .
Peirce also had some insights about cosmology that were along the
lines that Einstein and others explored from 1905 to 1930. But
physics and astronomy have progressed so far in the past century that
I would not consider any of his comments on those topics more than
interesting suggestions.
John
