Book Synopsis Upside-down Gods by : Peter Harries-Jones
Book excerpt: Human survival requires a reorientation of science away from its exclusive technical and materialist premises focused on control, towards feedback and relational processes of organism-plus-environment. Gregory Bateson's holistic approach unites culture, communication, psychology, biology and ecology within a single trans-disciplinary enquiry substituting pattern, perceptual difference, and relations for 'thinginess' of scientific data.
