Description based upon print version of record.. - Philosophy and the conflict of beliefs -- The story of nature -- The discovery of rational discourse -- The search for salvation -- From cosmic nature to human nature -- Wandering between two worlds -- The present problem of knowledge -- The supreme human art -- Things and persons -- Mind and body -- The practical and the theoretical -- The material and the ideal -- Nature and human nature -- Experience as life-function.. - In 1947 America's premier philosopher, educator, and public intellectual John Dewey purportedly lost his last manuscript on modern philosophy in the back of a taxicab. Now, sixty-five years later, Dewey's fresh and unpretentious take on the history and theory of knowledge is finally available. Editor Phillip Deen has taken on the task of editing Dewey's unfinished work, carefully compiling the fragments and multiple drafts of each chapter that he discovered in the folders of the Dewey Papers at the Special Collections Research Center at Southern Illinois University Carbondale.
