Book excerpt: Documents a decade that saw the Association begin negotiations to merge with the Western Philosophical Association that later led to the original organization becoming the Eastern Division of an expanded Association, and a world war that divided friends and colleagues across both geographical and political lines.

The topics include the problem of transcendence, Bergson and pragmatism, time and the experience of time, the ethics of states, the doctrinaire in a time of crisis, the psychology of punitive justice, art and the democracy, the social significance of education, and the attack on the state.
