John Dewey: A Beginner's Guide

I've recently completed a book on John Dewey for Oneworld Press. Due in June 2008.


This is a critical introduction to the major areas of his philosophical thought: psychology, epistemology, ethics, politics, education, aesthetics, and philosophy of religion.


Here are some kind words:


"Intelligent, informed, judicious, and praise-worthy. Clearly of help to those coming to Dewey for the first time."  --John J. McDermott - University Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at Texas A&M University, and editor of The Philosophy of John Dewey


"Incisive and clear-headed. He has laid a firm foundation for discovering Dewey's importance in coming to grips with the ecological and global problems of the 21st century." --Thomas M. Alexander, Professor of Philosophy at Southern Illinois University


"Erudite, organized, and articulate. The key terms and concepts of Dewey's major publications are identified, explained, and related to one another in ways that render his work highly accessible. A lucid and jargon-free introduction." --Larry Hickman, Director of the Center for Dewey Studies

Welcome! I am a professor in the department of philosophy.
