Peirce on Habits - Developing a Pragmatist Ontology

Peirce on Habits explores the principle of habit, its mode of being, and its implications for defining humans as "creatures of habit." Drawing on the perspective of American philosopher Charles S. Peirce, it addresses issues in current habit theory, from general ontological concerns to their impact on cognition and subjectivity.
