Book Overview
This volume explores the controversial question of the relationship between Marxism and pragmatism. In this biography of philosopher Sidney Hook, Christopher Phelps describes his neglected early thought and political history as a New York intellectual, pragmatist philosopher and anti-Stalinist polemicist. Throughout the Cold War decades, Hook was a notoriously strident anti-communist. But in earlier life, he had a very different career as a radical philosopher and Marxist scholar who argued for replacing capitalism with a more democratic society.
