Dewey's New Logic (Paperback, New edition)

Although John Dewey is celebrated for his work in the philosophy of education and acknowledged as a leading proponent of American pragmatism, his philosophy of logic has up to now been largely ignored. In Dewey's New Logic, Tom Burke analyzes the debate between Russell and Dewey that followed the 1938 publication of Dewey's Logic: The Theory of Inquiry. Here, he argues that Russell failed to understand Dewey's philosophy of logic and that Dewey's views are relevant in important ways to recent developments in philosophy and cognitive science. Burke demonstrates that Russell misconceived crucial aspects of Dewey's logical theory and contends that logic today has progressed beyond Russell and is approaching Dewey's broader perspective.
