About this listen

An icon of philosophy and psychology during the first half of the 20th century and the author of over forty books across a range of topics, Dewey is known as the father of functional psychology and a pivotal figure of the pragmatist movement, as well as the progressive movement in education. This concise and critical look at Dewey’s work examines his unique take on art and religion, his naturalistic approach to science and psychology, and his contribution to political thought. Hildebrand’s biography brilliantly interweaves the different strands of Dewey's thought, and examines the legacy he left behind.©2008 David Hildebrand (P)2012 Bolinda Publishing Psychology Science & Technology

Editor reviews

Few have done as much work across as many disciplines in America as the philosopher and psychologist John Dewey. Throughout his long life, Dewey was a pioneer in the world of psychology, education, philosophy, and sociology. With this accessible audiobook, Professor David Hildebrand takes a unique look at one of the 20th century’s leading intellectuals. Performed with an engaging delivery from veteran narrator Christine Williams, this biography examines in detail Dewey’s take on everything from art and religion to his work on functional psychology.

Critic reviews

“Intelligent, informed, judicious and praise-worthy. Clearly of help to those coming to Dewey for the first time.” (John J. McDermott, University Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, Texas A&M University)
"Erudite, organised and articulate. The key terms and concepts of Dewey’s major publications are identified, explained and related to one another in ways that render his work highly accessible." (Larry Hickman - Director of the Center for Dewey Studies)
