This thoughtful, sensitive, fascinating study of a thoughtful, sensitive, fascinating woman revives an almost forgotten American philosopher. John Kaag's account of the life and work of Ella Lyman Cabot locates her in relation to her better-known contemporaries, traces the development of her thought, narrates details of her remarkable marriage, and compellingly argues for the importance of her ideas. His penetrating analysis also supports his own argument for the value of philosophical thought that is grounded in and useful for daily experience and of the kind of practical idealism that Cabot's work embodies.
