xxi, 151 pp. "Dewey's influence on American life can scarcely be underestimated. During his lifetime he was America's leading educational theorist, and his work continues to be a source of insight for reformers in that field. His social and political ideas, especially his radical conception of democracy, continue to be assaulted from both the right and the left. Together with Ludwig Wittgenstein and Martin Heidegger, Dewey is widely regarded as one of the three most innovative philosophers of the twentieth century. He was loved, honored, vilified, and attacked as perhaps no other major philosopher in American history. Although he was the recipient of scores of honors and awards, perhaps the most appropriate one was bestowed on him during the 1930s, when he became widely known as 'America's Philosopher.'" - American National Biography
