Maybe it's because of that hole in the sun's corona that's been in the
news (also look up "EMP", see the NASA &Wikipedia pages on "Carrington
event", a subject worth learning about), but anyway I'm having trouble
with an update to the Books 2006-2015 page at Arisbe, so, if you go
there you may find much of the page to be missing. I'll try again
tomorrow. - Best, Ben

Gary R., list,
The new book about Peirce's concept of habit obviously deserves an
entry at Arisbe. It's time for me to create a new page for books
published in 2016 or after. Meanwhile, I need to add some more books
to the page for books 2006-2015. Peter Lang published in December 2015
a second book edited by Elize Bisanz of texts by Peirce. In the new
book, at least one of texts has not been previously published ("Quest
of Quests", MS 655, which Arnold Shepperson cited in his paper on
Peircean classification, kinds of induction, and media, communication,
and journalism).

o /Publisher's description:/
Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914), American Scientist,
Mathematician, and Logician, developed much of the logic
widely used today. Using copies of his unpublished
manuscripts, this book provides a comprehensive collection of
Peirce’s writings on Phaneroscopy and the outlines of his
project to develop a Science of Reasoning. The collection is
focused on three main fields: Phaneroscopy, the science of
observation, Semeiotic, the science of sign relations, and
Logic, the science of inferences. Peirce understands all
thought to be mediated in and through signs and its essence to
be diagrammatic. The book serves as a timely contribution for
the introduction of Peirce’s Phaneroscopy to the emerging
research field of Image Sciences.
Elize Bisanz holds a PhD in Communication Sciences from the
Technical University of Berlin. She is an advisory board
member of the German Association of Semiotic Studies as well
as a permanent research member of the Institute for Studies in
Pragmaticism at Texas Tech University.

*Subject: [PEIRCE-L] Peirce’s Concept of Habit: Before and Beyond
Consciousness
Date: Tue, 4 Oct 2016
From: Gary Richmond <[email protected]>
To: Peirce-L <[email protected]> *
List,
This looks to be an interesting collection of essays on habit as
Peirce conceived of it. Consensus on Peirce’s Concept of Habit:
Before and Beyond Consciousness
http://www.springer.com/us/book/9783319459189
<http://www.springer.com/us/book/9783319459189>
About the book: This book constitutes the first treatment of C. S.
Peirce’s unique concept of habit. Habit animated the pragmatists of
the 19th and early 20th centuries, who picked up the baton from
classical scholars, principally Aristotle. Most prominent among the
pragmatists thereafter is Charles Sanders Peirce. In our vernacular,
habit connotes a pattern of conduct. Nonetheless, Peirce’s concept
transcends application to mere regularity or to human conduct; it
extends into natural and social phenomena, making cohesive inner and
outer worlds. Chapters in this anthology define and amplify Peircean
habit; as such, they highlight the dialectic between doubt and
belief. Doubt destabilizes habit, leaving open the possibility for
new beliefs in the form of habit-change; and without habit-change,
the regularity would fall short of habit – conforming to
automatic/mechanistic systems. This treatment of habit showcases how,
through human agency, innovative regularities of behavior and thought
advance the process 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. Further, the book charts how indexical signs in
language and action are pivotal in establishing attentional patterns;
and how these habits accommodate novel orientations within event
templates. It is intended for those interested in Peirce’s metaphysic
or semiotic, including both senior scholars and students of
philosophy and religion, psychology, sociology and anthropology, as
well as mathematics, and the natural sciences.
