| Philosopher, born in Chelsea, Massachusetts, USA. A long serving teacher at Barnard College and Columbia University (1903–47), he was one of the ‘new realists’ to co-write a famous 1912 article expounding an alternative to the idealism then dominant in philosophy. He gave important series of lectures and chaired American delegations to international philosophical meetings. Among his works is The Ways of Knowing (1925). |
