Written by scholars from Belgium, Italy, Norway, Sweden, and the USA, this book shows how transactionalism can offer an entirely new way of understanding teaching and learning, the individual and sociocultural dimension of education, and educational research. The contributors show how the concept helps us to see beyond an array of false dualisms, such as mind versus body, self versus society, and organism versus environment, as well as an equally vast array of binaries, such as inside-outside, presence-absence, and male-female. They introduce the key critical ideas that transactionalism represents including emergence; living in a world without a within; the temporally and extensionally distributed nature of meaning, mind, and self. The use and elaboration of transactionalism is grounded in philosophical\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA milestone in the advance of transactionalist studies which explicates, develops and applies Dewey’s most important work through a series of sophisticated theoretical and empirically rich studies. * Chris Shilling, Professor, University of Kent, UK *\u003cbr\u003eGarrison, Öhman, and Östman offer a remarkable book on John Dewey’s transactionalism. Not only does this work highlight Dewey’s last book, On Knowing and the Known, with Arthur Bentley, it demonstrates the functional utility of philosophy applied to schooling. This outstanding addition to Dewey scholarship is a must-read book for anyone interested in moving ‘schooling’ away from mere training and toward engagement, enactment, and growth. * Deron Boyles, Distinguished University Professor, Georgia State University and Past-President, John Dewey Society, USA *\u003cbr\u003eDeweyan Transactionalism in Education is an amazing example of what the editors call “applied philosophy”. Mobilizing Dewey’s notion of transaction and applying it to multiple educational contexts, the authors design an epistemological framework which grounds a transactional understanding of educational processes and practices, according to a sustainable perspective. * Maura Striano, University of Naples Federico II, Italy *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Illustrations Notes on Contributors Acknowledgements 1.
