Soft cover. Condition: Good. Dive into the complex world of cybernetics, ecology, and anthropology with Peter Harries-Jones's crucial study on Gregory Bateson. Published as part of the prestigious Meaning Systems series by Fordham University Press, this book offers an essential critique of how Bateson's "world of difference" cha…llenges traditional views on science, spirit, and nature. It is a vital text for students of communication theory, ecological philosophy, and systems thinking. The Scholarship: Harries-Jones provides a masterful interpretation of Bateson's mind-nature synthesis, arguing that Bateson's holistic view offers a path out of modern ecological and intellectual crises. Format: Softcover / Paperback (ISBN: 9780823270354). Condition: Covers: Original paperback covers show light rubbing and shelf wear consistent with academic study. Note that the lower right front corner is creased. Interior: The text block is exceptionally clean and unmarked, free from the highlighting or marginalia frequently found in academic literature. Provenance & Markings: A previous owner's name is written on the half-title page, and a previous bookstore sticker remains on the rear cover. A solid, complete, and tightly bound copy of a specialized text in contemporary social philosophy.

Paperback. Condition: New. This intellectual biography covers the trajectory of Bateson's career, from his anthropological work in Bali alongside his wife, Margaret Mead, to his contributions to family therapy in the United States, and to studies of recursion as a feature of communication patterns in both the human and in the an…imal world. Layers of feedback with their many differing contexts, highlight the presence of meaning in social relations in contrast to that absence of meaning, purposefully proposed, within information theory. Throughout the human and in the animal world, recursion of feedback accounts for grasp of patterns, their difference, and with ability to communicate, enable transduction of perceptions of difference. Bateson's insistence on feedback and communication re-frames many aspects of culture, psychology, biology, and evolution. His legacy is recognized as an important precursor to the formation of a new science called Biosemiotics. Harries-Jones argues that Bateson turns conventional causality upside down through showing how humanity's perceptions, as with perceptions of all sentient beings, are anticipative. All sentient beings abduct from recursive patterns, rather than relying on linear evidence gathered about time/space movements of objects. Thus circular pattering provides clearer perceptions of the difference between sustainable creativity and current biocide, between our appreciation of nature's aesthetics and time/space 'games of power' which underlie so many social and biological theories.
