Habit And Instinct

Habit and Instinct is a book written by C. Lloyd Morgan, which explores the concepts of habit and instinct in animals and humans. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the definition and evolution of habit and instinct, while the second part examines their role in animal behavior.Morgan argues that habits are learned behaviors that are acquired through experience, while instincts are innate behaviors that are genetically programmed. He also discusses how habits and instincts can interact with each other, and how they can be modified through learning.The book draws on a wide range of examples from the animal kingdom, including insects, birds, and mammals, to illustrate the different ways in which habits and instincts can influence behavior. Morgan also explores the implications of these concepts for human behavior, including how habits can be formed and how they can be changed.Overall, Habit and Instinct is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of two fundamental concepts in the study of animal and human behavior. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the science of behavior and the workings of the mind.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
