28.02.2010 - Morte e continuidade de um dos maiores bibliófilos brasileiros. José Mindlin continua na continuação da sua paixão pela democratização do acesso ao livro no Brasil, e em cada um dos 45.000 volumes que doou para a (sua) Biblioteca Brasiliana Guita e José Mindlin, na USP. Ele que sempre defendeu a abertura de mais bibliotecas públicas em nosso País, espaços que, como a internet, deveriam ampliar o acesso aos livros funcionando também à noite, aos Sábados, Domingos e feriados. Neste BLOG fica um abraço virtual de terno agradecimento e profundo respeito.

CHK Gregory Bateson - I front and back cover
BOOK: CYBERNETICS & HUMAN KNOWING - A Journal of Second-Order Cybernetics, Autopoiesis & Cyber-Semiotics
Vol. 12, No. 1-2, 2005
GREGORY BATESON [1904-1980], Essays for an Ecology of Ideas
FRONT and BACK COVER (capa e contracapa)
"Gregory Bateson's work, intensely interdisciplinary, even transdisciplinary, in character, continues to touch others in fields as diverse as communication and ecology, anthropology and philosophy, family therapy and education, and mental and spiritual health. Bateson's cybernetic epistemology forges a path of connection.
The authors in this volume celebrate the Bateson Centennial, with contributions rooted in Bateson's ideas and ideals. Although their homes lie in different intellectual realms, their work embodies Bateson's interdisciplinary character.
These essays offer both personal stories of Bateson's influence, while at the same time demonstrating opportunities for its extension, and can be read as a gift to a creative spirit on his 100th birthday."
