The Middle Works of John Dewey, Volume 8, 1899 - 1924: Essays on Education and Politics, 1915 (Volume 8) (Collected Works of John Dewey)

By Jo Ann Boydston and John Dewey

Book Overview

Volume 8 comprises all Dewey's pub­lished writings for the year 1915--andonlyfor 1915, a year of typically ele­vated productivity, which saw publica­tion of fifteen articles and miscellaneous pieces and three books, two of which are reprinted here: German Philosophy and Politics and Schools of Tomorrow.

Professor Hook says that the publica­tions in this volume reveal John Dewey at the height of his philosophical pow­ers. Even though his greatest works were still to come--Democracy and Education, Experience and Nature, The Quest for Certainty, and Logic: The Theory of Inquiry--"thethemes elaborated there­in were already sounded and developed with incisive brevity in the articles and books of this banner year."
