Peter T. Manicas

Rescuing Dewey

Essays in Pragmatic Naturalism

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This volume rescues an often misunderstood, underappreciated, and radical John Dewey. It centers on his rejection of traditional epistemology for his original and powerful view of 'logic' with serious implications for general philosophy, the philosophy of the human sciences, including psychology, and the philosophy of democracy.
