«La nouvelle communication», an essay by Gregory Bateson, Ray Birdwhistell, Erving Goffman, Edward T. Hall and other authors, published by Seuil in paperback.
The work brings together texts by the theorists of the Palo Alto School who renewed the study of interpersonal communication. Against the linear sender-message-receiver model, it proposes understanding it as a circular, multichannel system, comparable to an orchestra without a conductor, where words, gestures and space combine to produce meaning.
This 1984 edition has 372 pages and is in French; the texts were collected and presented by Yves Winkin, with translation by D. Bansard and others.
For students of social sciences, psychology and communication interested in the Palo Alto School.
Gregory Bateson was an English anthropologist, social scientist, linguist, visual anthropologist, semiotician, and cyberneticist whose work intersected that of many other fields. His writings include Steps to an Ecology of Mind (1972) and Mind and Nature (1979).
