Later Works of John Dewey, Volume 12, 1925 - 1953: 1938, Logic

Heralded as "e;the crowning work of a great career,"e; Logic: The Theory of Inquiry was widely reviewed. To Evander Bradley McGilvary, the work assured De-wey "e;a place among the world's great logicians."e; William Gruen thought "e;No treatise on logic ever written has had as direct and vital an impact on social life as Dewey's will have."e; Paul Weiss called it "e;the source and inspiration of a new and powerful movement."e; Irwin Edman said of it, "e;Most phi-losophers write postscripts; Dewey has made a program. His Logic is a new charter for liberal intelligence."e; Ernest Nagel called the Logic an im-pressive work. Its unique virtue is to bring fresh illumination to its subject by stressing the roles logical principles and concepts have in achieving the ob-jectives of scientific inquiry."e;
