As one of America s "public intellectuals," John Dewey was
engaged in a lifelong struggle to understand the human mind and the
nature of human inquiry. According to Thomas C. Dalton, the
successful pursuit of this mission demanded that Dewey become more
than just a philosopher; it compelled him to become thoroughly
familiar with the theories and methods of physics, psychology, and
neurosciences, as well as become engaged in educational and social
reform. Tapping archival sources and Dewey s extensive
correspondence, Dalton reveals that Dewey had close personal and
intellectual ties to scientists and scholars who helped form the
mature expression of his thought. Dewey s relationships with F. M.
Alexander, Henri Matisse, Niels Bohr, Myrtle McGraw, and Lawrence
K. Frank, among others, show how Dewey dispersed pragmatism
throughout American thought and culture."
