Listen to a succinct account of the philosophy of Dewey in just one hour.In early twentieth-century America John Dewey was regarded as the foremost philosopher of his age - no mean feat when his colleagues included the likes of Russell, Wittgenstein and Heidegger. Dewey produced a distinctly American philosophy, essentially different from that of his European contemporaries - his pragmatic theory of 'instrumentalism' or 'experimentalism', relying on modern experimental methods to prove truth and reality. Dewey saw the ultimate reality as being nothing more or less than that which we encounter in everyday life - there is no mystery hidden within.This audiobook is a concise, expert account of Dewey's life and philosophical ideas, which is entertainingly written and is above all easy listening. Also included are selections from Dewey's work, suggested further reading and chronologies that place Dewey in the context of the broader scheme of philosophy. 517 $aDewey 700 $aStrathern$b Paul$f1940-$01265181 702 $aKeeble$b Jonathan$4oth 906 $aAUDIO 912 $a9910148762603321 996 $aDewey: Philosophy in an Hour$93648697 997 $aUNINA
