This third volume in the definitive edition of Deweys early work opens with his tribute to George Sylvester Morris, the former teacher who had brought Dewey to the University of Michigan. Morriss death in 1889 left vacant the Department of Philosophy chairmanship and led to Deweys returning to fill that post after a years stay at Minnesota.Appearing here, among all his writings from 1889 through 1892, are Deweys earliest comprehensive statements on logic and his first book on ethics. Deweys marked copy of the galleyproof for his important article ?The Present Position of Logical Theory, recently discovered among the papers of the Open Court Publishing Company, is used as the basis for the text, making available for the first time his final changes and corrections.The textual studies that make The Early Works unique among American philosophical editions are reported in detail. One of these, ?A Note on Applied Psychology,documents the fact that Dewey did not coauthor this book frequently attributed to him. Six brief unsigned articles written in 1891 for a University of Michigan student publication, the Inlander,have been identified as Deweys and are also included in this volume. In both style and content, these articles reflect Deweys conviction that philosophy should be used as a means of illuminating the contemporary scene; thus they add a new dimension to present knowledge of his early writing.
