Reviews

A milestone in the advance of transactionalist studies which explicates, develops and applies Dewey's most important work through a series of sophisticated theoretical and empirically rich studies. * Chris Shilling, Professor, University of Kent, UK * Garrison, OEhman, and OEstman offer a remarkable book on John Dewey's transactionalism. Not only does this work highlight Dewey's last book, On Knowing and the Known, with Arthur Bentley, it demonstrates the functional utility of philosophy applied to schooling. This outstanding addition to Dewey scholarship is a must-read book for anyone interested in moving 'schooling' away from mere training and toward engagement, enactment, and growth. * Deron Boyles, Distinguished University Professor, Georgia State University and Past-President, John Dewey Society, USA * Deweyan Transactionalism in Education is an amazing example of what the editors call applied philosophy . Mobilizing Dewey's notion of transaction and applying it to multiple educational contexts, the authors design an epistemological framework which grounds a transactional understanding of educational processes and practices, according to a sustainable perspective. * Maura Striano, University of Naples Federico II, Italy *
