How We Think

'How We Think' is a seminal work by John Dewey, an influential American philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer. Published in 1910, the book explores the nature of thought, inquiry, and problem-solving, particularly within the context of education and learning. Dewey argues that thinking is an active process involving inquiry, reflection, and experimentation rather than a passive absorption of knowledge. He emphasizes the importance of critical thinking, creative problem-solving, and the integration of experiences in shaping one's understanding of the world.
