Abstract
This volume republishes sixty-two of Deweys writings from the years 1942 to 1948; four other items are published here for the first time. A focal point of this volume is Deweys introduction to his collective volume Problems of Men. Exchanges in the Journal of Philosophy with Donald C. Mackay, Philip Blair Rice, and with Alexander Meiklejohn in Fortune appear here, along with Deweys letters to editors of various publications and his forewords to colleagues books. Because 1942 was the centenary of the birth of William James, four articles about James are also included in this volume.
