This fifth volume of the Middle Works contains "Ethics "by John
Dewey and his former colleague at the University of Michigan, James
H. Tufts, which ap-peared as one of the last in the Holt American
Science series of textbooks. Within some six months after
publica-tion, "Ethics "was adopted as a textbook by thirty
colleges. The book continued to be extremely popular and widely
used, and was reprinted twenty-five times before both authors
completely revised their respective parts for the new 1932 edition.
Up to the time "Ethics "was published, Dewey's approach to ethics
was known primarily from two short publications that were developed
for use by his classes at the University of Michigan: "Outlines of
a Critical Theory of Ethics "(1891) and "The Study of Ethics: A
Syl-labus "(1894). Charles Stevenson notes in his Introduction to
the present edition that "Ethics "afforded Dewey an opportu-nity to
preserve and enrich the content of those earlier works and at the
same time to expound his position in a more systematic
manner.
