The moral writings of John Dewey

Abstract

John Dewey (1859-1952), renowned educator and philosopher, has been called the national philosopher of American civilisation. James Gouinlock's superb collection of Dewey's writings presents the many aspects of Dewey's ethical thought. With this collection, students and scholars alike will more readily acknowledge Dewey's substantial contribution to our understanding of the moral life. The selections are grouped according to topic, including: 'The Nature of Moral Philosophy'; 'Man, Nature, and Society'; 'Value and Nature'; 'Human Nature and Value'; 'Value and Intelligence'; 'Moral Language'; and 'Social Intelligence and Democracy'.
