As fathers of Pragmatism, America's unique contribution to world philosophy, their work has been enormously influential, and remains essential to any understanding of American intellectual history.In these essays, you'll find William James deeply embroiled in debates between religion and science. Combining philosophical charity with logical clarity, he defended the validity of religious experience against crass forms of scientism. Dewey identified the myriad ways in which supernatural concerns distract religious adherents from pressing social concerns, and sought to reconcile the tensions inherent in science's dual embrace of common sense and the aesthetic. James and Dewey on Belief and Experience is divided into two sections: the former showcases James, the latter is devoted to Dewey. Two transitional passages in which each reflects on the work of the other bridge these two main segments. Together, the sections offer a unique perspective on the philosophers' complex relationship of influence and interdependence. An editors' introduction provides biographical information about both men, an overview of their respective philosophical orientations, a discussion of the editorial process, and a brief commentary on each of the selections.Comparing what these foremost pragmatists wrote on both themes illumines their common convictions regarding the nature of philosophical inquiry and simultaneously reveals what made each a distinctive thinker. 606 $aExperience (Religion) 606 $aPsychology, Religious 606 $aReligion$xPhilosophy 615 0$aExperience (Religion) 615 0$aPsychology, Religious. 615 0$aReligion$xPhilosophy. 676 $a191 700 $aJames$b William$f1842-1910.$047983 701 $aDewey$b John$f1859-1952.$046275 701 $aCapps$b John M.$f1970-$01654367 701 $aCapps$b Donald$0873671 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957641303321 996 $aJames and Dewey on belief and experience$94352237 997 $aUNINA
