The School and Society is a highly influential publication that laid the foundation for John Dewey's later work. In the initial publication, Dewey proposes a psychological, social, and political framework for progressive education, including collaborative practical experimentation as the central element of school work. He argues that the progressive approach is both an inevitable product of the Industrial Revolution and a natural fit with the psychology of children. The book had almost immediate popularity and influence, with three printings within its first year, comprising 7,500 copies between them. The first lecture examines the relationship of education and social progress. Dewey argues that, with the coming of the industrial age, many traditional educative processes had been lost. The third lecture takes on the issue of "waste in education" in a somewhat unusual mode. The work was cited by Édouard Claparède who helped shape a progressive éducation nouvelle in Geneva, Switzerland, in the years leading up to the first world war.
