Rezensionen

Philip B. Moore brings John Dewey to life. Packed with insights about Dewey's thinking on education, art, and democracy, and how it evolved during a pivotal time in American history, this book offers us a useful intellectual history. Moore has an eye for detail and anecdote, and this book works on so many levels: Dewey's ideas, his personal relationships, and the places and colleges where Dewey studied, taught, and lived."
