Dive into Samuel Butler's thought-provoking exploration of "Life and Habit," a cornerstone of philosophical and biological thought. This seminal work delves into the intricate relationship between habit, heredity, and evolution, challenging conventional understandings of life itself. Butler masterfully interweaves biology and philosophy, examining the role of memory in shaping both individual organisms and the broader sweep of evolutionary history.

Considered a vital contribution to metaphysics and psychology, "Life and Habit" dissects the mechanisms by which habits are formed and transmitted, prompting readers to reconsider the very definition of life. Explore the enduring power of habit through Butler's unique lens, as he dissects core tenets of evolutionary science. This meticulously prepared print edition allows readers to engage with Butler's original ideas, presented with clarity and precision, retaining its relevance for anyone interested in the foundations of evolutionary theory, the nature of memory, and the philosophy of life.
