This treatment of habit showcases how, through human agency, innovative regularities of behavior and thought advance theprocess of making the unconscious conscious. The latter materializes when affordances (invariant habits of physical phenomena) form the basis for modifications in action schemas and modes of reasoning.

“A substantial and important book, one that illuminates not only some of the complex details of Peirce s thought, but also a wide range of issues in pragmatism, semiotics, and philosophical anthropology for which his thinking about habit is shown to be relevant.” (Michael L. Raposa, From the Pluralist, Vol. 14 (2), 2019)“Thematic consensus that can be drawn from this important work it is that habits are not the result of mechanical-organic processes resulting from repeated actions, but rather involve agency, imagination, and semiosis. … Biologists are increasingly adopting a version of Peirce’s basic perspective of evolution … .” (Marcel Danesi, Biosemiotics, Vol. 11, 2018)
