DEWEY
Description
This book is an attempt to specify some of the most important features of that picture and how they bear on the way philosophy conducts argument. As a vehicle for this purpose it has sometimes seemed useful to illustrate by drawing on disputes in which Dewey participated, e.g. with Bertrand Russell or Arthur Lovejoy. But it has sometimes seemed more useful to confront Dewey’s views with those of philosophers, such a Hume and Aristotle, who flourished long before he did, as well as with those philosophers who have written since his death, such as Thomas Nagel and Bernard Williams. These disputes are not rehearsed to determine who should be declared the victor, but to illustrate how
difference in outlook leads to a difference in the way argument is conducted.
