Description: "This concise and critical look at John Dewey's work examines his unique take on morality, art, and religion, his naturalistic approach to science and psychology, and his important contribution to political thought. Also exploring Dewey's groundbreaking insights into how education should be treated as a social process and not just an engine for individual achievement, Hildebrand's introduction brilliantly interweaves the different strands of Dewey's thought, and demonstrates how it can be applied to key issues today, from the environment to bioethics."--BOOK JACKET.
