Dewey: A Beginner's Guide by David L. Hildebrand, published by
Oneworld (2008) Dewey: A Beginner's Guide is a critical
introduction to the major areas of John Dewey's philosophical
thought: psychology, epistemology, ethics, politics, education,
aesthetics, and philosophy of religion. The author of over 40
books across a range of topics, Dewey's legacy remains not only
through the works he left us, but also through the institutions
he founded, which include The New School for Social Research in
New York City and the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools.
Hildebrand's biography brilliantly interweaves the different
strands of Dewey's thought, and examines the legacy he left
behind.
