The Collected Works of John Dewey v. 7; 1912-1914, Essays, Books Reviews, Encyclopedia Articles in the 1912-1914 Period, and Interest and Effort in Education: The Middle Works, 1899-1924

During the three years embraced by Volume 7, Dewey published twenty articlesand reviews, one of the articles of monograph-length, The Psychology of Social Behavior, one small book, Interest and Effort in Education, and sev enty encyclopedia articles.

A salient and arresting feature of the essays is the continuing polemic be tween Dewey and some of his critics. Ralph Ross, whose perceptive Introduc tion to the volume provides a broad per spective of the various philosophicalcontroversies in which Dewey was en gaged, comments that when Dewey was pitting himself against important adversaries, his talents as a critic were fully evident.
