Human Nature And Conduct - Part 1, The Place of Habit in Conduct
by John Dewey
'Human Nature And Conduct - Part 1, The Place of Habit in Conduct' Summary
John Dewey's 'Human Nature and Conduct - Part 1, The Place of Habit in Conduct' delves into the concept of 'habit' as a fundamental force in shaping human nature and behavior. Dewey argues that habits are not merely isolated actions but rather ingrained patterns of interaction between individuals and their environment. These habits, he contends, constitute the very essence of the self and determine our desires, actions, and moral judgments. Dewey's analysis draws heavily from both philosophy and psychology, examining the role of habits in shaping our understanding of free will, responsibility, and the nature of human conduct. This book provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the complex interplay between individual habits and the broader social and cultural context, making it a seminal work in the field of social psychology.Book Details
