This monograph presents a unitary account of Dewey's philosophy of
science and demonstrates the relevance for contemporary debates.
The book is written from a theoretical angle and explains Dewey's
via on Experience, Language, Inquiry, Construction and Realism. Via
taking this route the book addresses key philosophical problems -
such as the nature of language, the idea of experience, the notion
of logical constructivism, the criticism of representationalism and
the nature of scientific practices. John Dewey (1859-1952) is one
of the most representative philosophers of the United States. He is
well known for his work in education, psychology and social reform
and one of the primary figures associated with the philosophy of
pragmatism. His Philosophy of Science underwent a period of almost
total unpopularity and neglect. In recent times, however, as a
consequence of the strong pragmatist renaissance we are now
witnessing, Dewey's philosophy of science has attracted new
attention. This book presents for the first time a comprehensive
overview of Dewey's philosophy of science and will be of interest
to scholars working in nineteenth and twentieth century philosophy
of science and on the relationship between Pragmatism and Logical
Empiricism.
