Summary

In "Essays in Experimental Logic," John Dewey delves into the intricate relationship between logic and experience, presenting a compelling argument for an approach to logic grounded in real-world situations. Dewey's writing is characterized by clarity and precision, seamlessly blending philosophical inquiry with practical implications. He critiques traditional logical frameworks, emphasizing the dynamic and contingent nature of thought processes, which, he posits, must evolve in response to the complexities of lived experience. The essays in this collection challenge readers to reevaluate the purpose of logic and its application in experimental contexts, bridging the gap between philosophy and the sciences. John Dewey, a prominent American philosopher and educator, was a leading figure in pragmatism and instrumentalism, deeply influenced by his experiences in progressive education and social reform. His commitment to democracy and inquiry is mirrored in this work, as he advocates for a logic that is adaptable and responsive to the changing needs of society. Given his extensive background in both philosophy and educational practice, Dewey offers a unique perspective that highlights the importance of experiential learning in the development of logical reasoning. "Essays in Experimental Logic" is essential reading for anyone interested in philosophy, education, or the evolution of modern thought. Dewey's insights invite readers to consider how logic operates within the framework of human experience, making it a vital resource for scholars and students alike. This work not only enriches our understanding of logic but also challenges us to embrace a more dynamic and engaged approach to thinking.

    From the creator of “a unified field theory of racism” (NPR’s Planet Money), a dollars-and-cents reckoning of the state of Black America and a new framework to close the power gap Historically, Black Americans’ quest for power has been understood as an attempt to gain equal protections under the law. But power in America requires more than basic democratic freedoms. It is inextricably linked with economic influence and ownership—of one’s self, home, business, and creations. Andre M. Perry draws on extensive research and analysis to quantify how much power Black Americans actually have. Ranging from property, business, and wealth to education, health, and social mobility, Black Power Scorecard moves across the country, evaluating people’s ability to set the rules of the game and calculating how that translates into the ultimate means of power—life itself, and the longevity of Black communities. Along the way, Perry identifies woefully overlooked areas of investment that could close the racial gap and benefit everyone. An expansive take on power supported by documentation and data, Black Power Scorecard is a fresh contribution to the country’s reckoning with structural inequality, one that offers a new approach to redressing it.A Macmillan Audio production from Metropolitan Books.

    Man's search for meaning : An Introduction to Logotherapy 
“One of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought in the last fifty years.” —Dr. Carl Rogers, psychologist and founder of Rogerian therapy. 
“Viktor Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning is one of the great books of our time. Typically, if a book has one passage, one idea with the power to change a person’s life, that alone justifies reading it, rereading it, and finding room for it on one’s shelves. This book has several such passages.” —Harold S. Kushner, author and rabbi emeritus at Temple Israel. 
Viktor Frankl's account of his battle for survival at Auschwitz and other concentration camps is included in Man's Search for Meaning, one of the great masterpieces to come out of the Holocaust. 
Generations of readers have been captivated by this book because of its depictions of life in Nazi death camps and its spiritual survival teachings. 
Frankl contends that although we cannot escape pain, we can decide how to manage it, find meaning in it, and go on with a new sense of purpose based on his personal experience and the testimonies of his patients. The belief that the pursuit of what we find significant, rather than pleasure, is the fundamental human motivation is at the core of his philosophy, which is known as logotherapy. 
One of the most important books in the Universe today is Man's Search for Meaning, which never stops encouraging us to discover meaning in life itself.
