These traits were apparent in his comments about eminent philosophers with whom he had associated - particularly William James but also Santayana, Dewey, Husserl, and Wittgenstein - and in the mutual criticism he demanded of his writing and my first efforts. I was pleased and felt immensely privileged to share in his planning of a book devoted to \"analysis, the method of philosophy at work\" as in his articles on the knowledge-problem, induction, and free will. In view of the penetration of his articles, such a book seemed long overdue as James had insisted even in 1905. When Miller's projected book on \"analysis at work\" did not appear by 1956, I consulted him about putting together a collection of his published essays. Such a collection seemed but slight homage to one who had made such a striking contribution to American philosophy in rela­ tion to James and one from whom I had learned so much. He felt, however, that such a collection would be inappropriate and preferred to concentrate on a book, never finished, on \"the principles of practical intelligence\", the application of intelligence in a \"morality of results\" for human welfare.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1975-05-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789027705662\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-010-1792-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: cm xcm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 343\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44481650425996,"sku":"9789027705662","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789027705662.jpg?v=1771514063","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789027705662","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
