Description

Dewey’s Essays in Experimental Logic: thinking as an experiment, not a museum of ideas. Judgment, data, inquiry that has to risk being wrong. Sovereign ebook. Not the Reconstruction lectures under a wrong title. Logic as a living method — how a mind moves from trouble to a claim that can be tried. American pragmatism in essay form. For readers who want the workshop, not the slogan. Experience as the test bench, thought as a tool that dulls if it never meets a fact.

Author

John Dewey, a renowned American philosopher and educator, was an eminent exponent of the pragmatist school of thought. Drawing heavily from the works of his predecessors such as William James and Charles Sanders Peirce, Dewey developed a comprehensive philosophy that emphasized the interdependency between knowledge acquisition and practical experiences.
