How We Think is a book written by the American educational philosopher John Dewey, published in 1910. [1] It was reissued in a substantially revised edition in 1933. [2]

The original version has 14 chapters and opens with the words

No words are oftener on our lips than thinking and thought . So profuse and varied, indeed, is our use of these words that it is not easy to define just what we mean by them. [1]

Chapter 1 is then concerned with establishing a "single consistent meaning" for "thinking" and "thought". [1] [3]
