Wilmon Henry Sheldon | America's Progressive Philosophy
- Publisher: New Haven, Yale University Press; London, H. Milford, Oxford University Press;
Progressivism is a political philosophy in support of social reform. Based on the idea of progress in which advancements in science, technology, economic development and social organization are vital to the improvement of the human condition, progressivism became highly significant. Wilmon Henry Sheldon was a twentieth-century American philosopher, educated at Harvard University and taught at Yale and this book is one of his major works.
"If the following pages help in any degree to foster more of the search for livable truth and less for the theoretical flaws in the enduring metaphysical systems, they are sufficiently justified. The writer cordially thanks the Department of Philosophy at Indiana University, and especially Professor Jellena and Dr. Stephens, for this opportunity to express convictions which be cannot but believe to be fundamental importance for the cause of philosophy.
