FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description George Herbert Mead is widely recognized as one of the most brilliantly original American pragmatists. Although he had a profound influence on the development of social philosophy, he published no books in his lifetime. This makes the lectures collected in Mind, Self, and Society all the more remarkable, as they offer a rare synthesis of his ideas.This collection gets to the heart of Meads meditations on social psychology and social philosophy. Its penetrating, conversational tone transports the reader directly into Meads classroom as he teases out the genesis of the self and the nature of the mind. The book captures his wry humor and shrewd reasoning, showing a man comfortable quoting Aristotle alongside Alice in Wonderland.Included in this edition are an insightful foreword from leading Mead scholar Hans Joas, a revealing set of textual notes by Dan Huebner that detail the texts origins, and a comprehensive bibliography of Meads other published writings. While Meads lectures inspired hundreds of students, much of his brilliance has been lost to time. This new edition ensures that Meads ideas will carry on, inspiring a new generation of thinkers. Author Biography George Herbert Mead (1863-1931) was an American philosopher, sociologist, and psychologist who spent much of his career teaching at the University of Chicago. Charles W. Morris (1901-79) was an American semiotician and philosopher. Daniel R. Huebner is assistant professor of sociology at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Hans Joas is director of the Max Weber Center at the University of Erfurt and professor of sociology and social thought at the University of Chicago. Review "If philosophical eminence be measured by the extent to which a mans writings anticipate the focal problems of a later day and contain a point of view which suggests persuasive solutions to many of them, then George Herbert Mead has justly earned the high praise bestowed upon him by Dewey and Whitehead as a seminal mind of the very first order."(Nation) Details ISBN022611273X Author Charles W.
