Answer: B
James replaced 'the truth' with a diversified plurality of truths.
In Pragmatism (1907), William James rejects the idea of one absolute, static Truth. For the pragmatist, truth happens to an idea: ideas become true as they are verified and work in experience. There are therefore many truths, in the plural, each made in particular situations and open to revision.
Appearances, percepts and concepts are the materials truths are made from or about, not what James puts in the place of 'the truth'.
