Philosophy reconsidered through its consequences

Written shortly after World War I, John Dewey’s *Reconstruction in Philosophy* presents a pragmatic humanist approach to philosophical inquiry. Its central concern is how people might examine deep-seated beliefs and feelings by considering the effects those convictions have in practice. Dewey connects this reappraisal with understanding the past and shaping a more ordered future, making the book’s subject not only the history of ideas but their bearing on human life.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in pragmatism and humanist philosophy
  • Those exploring how beliefs and feelings shape practical life
  • Readers seeking philosophical reflections on the relationship between past and future

Book overview

The esteemed psychologist and thinker John Dewey headed for previously unexplored philosophical territory with this influential work. Written shortly after World War I, it embodies Dewey's system of pragmatic humanism and maintains that individuals can attain "a more ordered and intelligent happiness" by reconsidering the ultimate effects of their deepest beliefs and feelings. With its promise of achieving an understanding of the past and attaining a brighter future, Reconstruction in Philosophy remains ever relevant. "A modern classic." - Philosophy and Phenomenological Research.
