The Collected Works of John Dewey v. 8; 1915, Essays and Miscellany in the 1915 Period and German Philosophy and Politics and Schools of Tomorrow: The Middle Works, 1899-1924

Volume 8 comprises all Dewey’s pub lished writings for the year 1915–and only for 1915, a year of typically ele vated productivity, which saw publica tion of fifteen articles and miscellaneous pieces and three books, two of which are reprinted here: German Philosophy and Politics and Schools of Tomorrow.

Professor Hook says that the publica tions in this volume reveal John Dewey at the height of his philosophical pow ers. Even though his greatest works were still to come–Democracy and Education, Experience and Nature, The Quest for Certainty, and Logic: The Theory of Inquiry– the themes elaborated there in were already sounded and developed with incisive brevity in the articles and books of this banner year.
