The article presents information about three books. "The Quest for Certainty: A Study of the Relation of Knowledge and Action," by John Dewey; "The Sources of a Science of Education," by John Dewey-Horace; "A Bibliography of John Dewey," by Milton Halsey Thomas and Herbert Wallace; "Essays in Honor of John Dewey," by Henry Holt. "The Quest for Certainty" is devoted to the elaboration, the insistent iteration, directly and by antithesis, of one idea that of the intimate connection between knowledge and action. It is an apotheosis of the experimental procedure.
