The Later Works of John Dewey, Volume 4, 1925 - 1953 Volume 4 by John Dewey

This volume provides an authoritative edition of Dewey's The Quest for Cer­tainty: A Study of the Relation Between Knowledge and Action. The book is made up of the Gifford Lectures deliv­ered April- May 1929 at the University of Edinburgh. Writing to Sidney Hook, Dewey described this work as a criti­cism of philosophy as attempting to at­tain theoretical certainty. In the Philo­sophical Review Max C. Otto later elaborated: Mr. Dewey wanted, so far as lay in his power, to crumble into dust, once and for all, ' the chief fortress of the classic philosophical tradition.

Stephen Toulmin is Professor in the Community on Social Thought, Univer­sity of Chicago.

Jo Ann Boydston is Gen­eral Editor of the Later Works, The Mid­dle Works of John Dewey, 1899–1924, and The Early Works of John Dewey, 1882–1898.

Harriet Furst Simon is a staff member at the Dewey Center.
