Books by John Dewey

John Dewey (1859–1952) was an American philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer whose influence on twentieth-century thought was immense. He was a central figure in the pragmatist tradition alongside William James and Charles Sanders Peirce, and his work in philosophy of education reshaped schooling in the United States. Art as Experience, delivered as the first William James Lectures at Harvard in 1931, represents his sustained treatment of aesthetics. His other major works include Experience and Nature, Democracy and Education, and Logic: The Theory of Inquiry.
