Definition / description
John Anderson's book Cognitive Psychology suggests hypothesis formation as fundamental to the idea of "concepts", and he goes over many of the ideas that are central to this Closed Loop framework. He uses Venn diagrams as basic to his discussion of induction and deduction.
This would go to the "origin of concepts"
I note that the word "Peirce" does not appear in the name index of the book -- and for concepts, the subject index says "see schemas" -- but he uses the word and there are good example of the dynamic. Where do concepts come from? He has good clear mathematics-based idea on that.
