The 20th century has witnessed the blossoming of Western culture: new technology; communications & transportation systems; social, political, educational, agricultural & medical advances. But with these changes have come the strains & tensions of conflicting interests, desires & values within the community. John Dewey, one of America's most prolific writers of popular philosophy, believed that humankind could keep a firm hold on its destiny only if the critical intelligence of scientific method & its democratic counterpart were emphasized & promoted. Freedom of inquiry, tolerance of diverse ideas & opinions, cultural pluralism, free speech & a willingness to cooperate in pursuit of shared values & ideals would be the springboard for social development.
