This is the first book to consider the major implications for
culture of the new science of biosemiotics. The volume is mainly
aimed at an audience outside biosemiotics and semiotics, in the
humanities and social sciences principally, who will welcome
elucidation of the possible benefits to their subject area from a
relatively new field. The book is therefore devoted to illuminating
the extent to which biosemiotics constitutes an 'epistemological
break' with 'modern' modes of conceptualizing culture. It shows
biosemiotics to be a significant departure from those modes of
thought that neglect to acknowledge continuity across nature, modes
which install culture and the vicissitudes of the polis at the
centre of their deliberations. The volume exposes the untenability
of the 'culture/nature' division, presenting a challenge to the
many approaches that can only produce an understanding of culture
as a realm autonomous and divorced from nature.
