The set is particularly notable for its global representation and its interdisciplinary approach. It will prove indispensable not just for students of semiotics per se but also for researchers in countless other disciplines engaged in examining perception, language, and representation, i.e., the nature of communication. This set will be welcome by semioticians and nonsemioticians alike for its breadth of semiotic insight on human knowledge. Summing Up: Essential. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty; general readers.
