During the three years embraced by Volume 7, Dewey published twenty articlesand reviews, one of the articles of monograph-length, "The Psychology of Social Behavior," one small book, Interest and Effort in Education, and seventy encyclopedia articles.
A salient and arresting feature of the essays is the continuing polemic between Dewey and some of his critics. Ralph Ross, whose perceptive Introduction to the volume provides a broad perspective of the various philosophicalcontroversies in which Dewey was engaged, comments that "when Dewey was pitting himself against important adversaries, his talents as a critic were fully evident."
