Introduction / Molly Cochran -- The making of a democratic philosopher: the intellectual development of John Dewey / Robert Westbrook -- Dewey's epistemology / Ruth Anna Putnam -- The naturalism of John Dewey / Richard M. Gale -- Dewey's logic of inquiry / Isaac Levi -- The primacy of practice in Dewey's experimental empiricism / J.E. Tiles -- Cognitive science and Dewey's theory of mind, thought, and language / Mark Johnson -- John Dewey on action / Matthias Jung -- Dewey's moral philosophy / Jennifer Welchman -- Ethics as moral inquiry: Dewey and the moral psychology of social reform / James Bohman -- Dewey and pragmatic religious naturalism / Sami Pihlström -- Dewey's aesthetics / Richard Eldridge -- Dewey's philosophy of education: a critique from the perspective of care theory / Nel Noddings -- Dewey's vision of radical democracy / Richard J. Bernstein -- Dewey as an international thinker / Molly Cochran.
John Dewey (1859-1952) was a major figure of the American cultural and intellectual landscape in the first half of the twentieth century. While not the originator of American pragmatism, he was instrumental to its articulation as a philosophy and the spread of its influence beyond philosophy to other disciplines. His prolific writings encompass metaphysics, philosophy of mind, cognitive science, psychology, moral philosophy, the philosophies of religion, art, and education, and democratic political and international theory. The contributors to this Companion examine the wide range of Dewey's thought and provide a critical evaluation of his philosophy and its lasting influence, both elsewhere in philosophy and on other disciplines.
