Human Nature and Conduct, an Introduction to Social Psychology, Part I of IV.
.

This project is complete and all audiofiles can be found in the catalogue: https://librivox.org/human-nature-and-conduct-part-1-by-john-dewey/
Part 1: The Place of Habit in Conduct

John Dewey, an early 20th Century American philosopher, psychologist, educational theorist saw Social Psychology as much a physical science (with rules and predictive power) as Biology and Chemistry. This project encompasses Part 1 of 4 of his book Human Nature and Conduct.

Dewey's uses the word "HABIT" as a specialized catch-all word to describe how a person and his/her objective environment interact. This interaction is the basis for moral judgement. Dewey writes: "All habits are demands for certain kinds of activity; and they constitute the self.” In other places he also asserts that "Habits are Will." ~ Summary by William Jones, Soloist
  1. Text source (only read from this text!): http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/41386
  2. Type of proof-listening required (Note: please read the PL FAQ): special: Standard plus read along with the text and notate any significant discrepancies. Reader requests crits and comments.

    IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).
    Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process (unless you are the BC or PL). Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

Wow. Thanks. So this is really happening. Bill has been working on the files for several months, and is now working on a summary. I think it should go fairly quickly. :D :D :D

Since there are under 10 sections and the 0 is dropped in the Section number, (1,2,3, vs 01, 02, 03), should the file name drop the 0 as well?

I am in the process of rewriting the Summary. Will make it available this evening.
Can you figure out what my tomorrow will be about? Having never read Dewey in depth except what Marie Montessori said about him, I think I look forward to it yet I tremble to think how I may have to re-arrange 50+ years of my conduct!

MsFry: as to your question of what your tomorrow (now: today) will be like, I can confidently assert that Dewey would argue that it will be totally rational and based on the set of circumstances surrounding you. He would probably assert, also, that hot steaming coffee would play a part. :D

PL Notes Section 0 - Introduction
This is very heavy material. You are brave to tackle it. Good job!

Just a few notes:
You had talked about citing the by-lines as they appear in the Table of Contents: i.e.,
INTRODUCTION - Contempt for human nature; pathology of goodness; freedom; value of science.
As you didn't include it in this section, I wonder if you intended to leave it out?

5:30 a decline in the authority of social oligarchy was accompanied by a rise of scientific interest, I hear was accomplished by
21:34 It would not make the moral life as simple as a matter, delete second 'as'
