Chapter 5: Some other ideas about information

Summary/Abstract: The Peircean semiotic approach to information we developed in the previous chapter raises several questions and shows both similarities and differences when contrasted with other accounts of information. We do not intend, however, to present in this book any exhaustive discussion about the relationships between our account and other approaches to information. In this chapter, we will only stress some similarities and differences between a Peircean semiotic treatment of information and some ideas put forward by Gregory Bateson and Eva Jablonka (see also Queiroz et al. 2008).
