  abstract: "John Dewey is among history's most celebrated thinkers on democracy and education, yet he has often been underappreciated as a philosopher. This book paints a fresh portrait of Dewey as not only a reformer of schooling but also a profound theorist of human development, whose vision of the centrality of education to democracy, philosophy, and flourishing can still inspire us today. What can we learn from this great thinker as we face challenges such as widespread drudgery and disaffection, estrangement among individuals and groups, and a crisis of democracy? This book supplies the answers, offering a bold new account of Dewey as an educational theorist who is essential for our troubled times. Revealing the true scope of Dewey's educational vision, this book provides a new perspective on a neglected aspect of the philosophical tradition. Growing People presents an alternative canon-running from Plato to Rousseau to Du Bois-that recasts philosophy in terms of education and, in so doing, opens new pathways for social critique and the liberation of human potential"-- Provided by publisher.
