“A modern-day descendant of Hall’s caveman is Gregory Bateson. He is busy inventing something, an invention so profound that once fully propounded, it will seem always to have been ‘natural’. The full impact of Bateson’s thinking is so radical that, yes, I have doubts that he fully believes in his own ideas. This is the way it has to be. He has entered no man’s land. He is trying something new.”
Brockman, J. 1977 Introduction to Brockman, J. (ed.) ‘About Bateson: Essays on Gregory Bateson’ Irwin and company: Canada Pg18
