Before the famous Ethics came this leaner statement: Dewey's early outlines of a critical theory of morals. Eight compact divisions sketch the position he would spend a lifetime developing, conduct examined by intelligence rather than fixed rule. The pragmatist system in its first form. Watch a major philosophy being born.
