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 Mead's meditations on social psychology and social philosophy.

Its penetrating, conversational tone transports the reader directly into Mead's 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 Daniel R.

Huebner that detail the text's origins, and a comprehensive bibliography of Mead's other published writings.

While Mead's lectures inspired countless students, much of his brilliance has been lost to time.

This definitive edition ensures that Mead's ideas will carry on, inspiring a new generation of thinkers.
