In The Human Image in Helmuth Plessner, Pierre Bourdieu, and
Psychocentric Culture, Isaac E. Catt offers a unique criticism of
naturalistic reductions of humans to animals, to neuro substrates
and to DNA. Catt explores a new interpretation of Plessner and
Bourdieu, revealing the combinatory logic of semiotic phenomenology
in both and their common problematic of communication. Through an
emergent synthesis of philosophical anthropology and communicology,
this book provides a basis for criticism of the failed mechanistic
medical model in psychiatry, a fresh argument for reconceptualizing
psychiatry as a human science, and for construction of a new
ecological image of communicative being. Throughout the book,
alternative attempts to transcend dualisms such as cybernetics,
anti-anthropocentrism, and biosemiotics are revealed to risk
reification of the very objects of their analysis. Scholars of
communication, semiotics, and psychology will find this book of
particular interest.
