Understanding John Dewey: Nature and Cooperative Intelligence (International Studies in Philosophy)
("This beautifully written work is the best general introd...)
"This beautifully written work is the best general introduction to Dewey's philosophy. The exposition is greatly enriched by Campbell's provision of the historical context of Dewey's aims and enquiries". -- James Gouinlock Emory University "Understanding John Dewey will be as useful to those coming to Dewey for the first time as to Dewey specialists. Few scholars combine as well as Campbell does deep knowledge of American intellectual history and skill in philosophical analysis". -- Peter H. Hare Editor, Transactions of the Peirce Society "A book not merely readable but elegant and lucid, not merely adequate but exemplary in its scholarship. Campbell's exposition is a skillfully crafted matrix in which Dewey's own words achieve a momentum and clarity seldom achieved in their original settings, while a chorus, composed mostly of Dewey's contemporaries, provide illuminating commentary from Campbell's footnotes". -- International Studies in Philosophy

In this work, the author attempts to define Benjamin Franklin's role as a philosopher. The book lays out in detail Franklin's ideas in four areas: science, religion, morality and politics; ultimately concluding that Franklin should be considered an early figure in the Pragmatist movement.

A Thoughtful Profession: The Early Years of the American Philosophical Association
( A profession that contemplates timeless truth, philosop...)
A profession that contemplates timeless truth, philosophy is rarely seen through a historian’s eyes, with its own discrete history and relationship to domestic and international politics. This fascinating, richly detailed account charts the development of professional philosophy in America after the Civil War, focusing on the early years of the American Philosophical Association.
