“Habituation” as a book category gathers works that explore how people, communities, and bodies adapt to repeated experiences—how routine, repetition, and exposure reshape attention, behavior, emotion, and identity. It spans practical guides to building or breaking habits and rituals; accessible psychology and neuroscience on desensitization, tolerance, and focus; and cultural or sociological studies of normalization within institutions, media, and technology. In fiction and memoir, it includes narratives where characters settle into, resist, or awaken from the pull of the familiar—stories of daily routines, training and discipline, addiction and recovery, migration and assimilation, grief and healing, and even time loops or cyclical structures. Together these books consider both the comfort and the risk of “getting used to” things, showing how repetition can stabilize life, numb us to harm, or become a lever for personal and social change.
