How We Think: Including Essays in Experimental Logic; Creative Intelligence; Human Nature & Conduct, Leibniz's New Essays...

In "How We Think," John Dewey presents a profound exploration of the process of logical thought and its crucial role in education and democratic society. Employing a pragmatic literary style, Dewey weaves philosophical inquiry with practical insights, breaking down the mechanics of reflective thinking. He critiques traditional pedagogy, advocating for an experiential approach that encourages students to engage in meaningful problem-solving and critical analysis'Äîan endeavor contextualized within early 20th-century debates on educational reform and the philosophy of mind. John Dewey, an influential figure in the realm of pragmatism and education, draws on his extensive background in philosophy, psychology, and pedagogy to champion the principles of an active and participatory learning process. His experiences as an educator and reformer during a period of social change informed his belief in the transformative power of inquiry-based learning, which he articulates in this seminal text, showcasing how thought can foster an engaged and reflective citizenry. I highly recommend "How We Think" to educators, philosophers, and anyone interested in the intersections of thought, action, and democratic ideals. Dewey's insights remain relevant as they challenge readers to rethink their approach to learning and the responsibilities of citizenship in an increasingly complex world.
