Human Nature And Conduct - Part 1, The Place of Habit in Conduct

by John Dewey

John Dewey, a renowned early 20th-century American philosopher and psychologist, explores the concept of 'habit' and its profound influence on human nature and conduct. Dewey defines 'habit' as the dynamic interaction between an individual and their environment, shaping their actions, desires, and moral judgments. Through a scientific lens, he argues that habits constitute the very essence of the self and serve as the foundation for understanding human will and decision-making. This book is a seminal work in social psychology, offering a comprehensive framework for comprehending the complex interplay between human behavior and the social world.
