The Missile Crisis itself is described in terms of Bateson’s critique of game theory which he felt should be modified by an understanding of the zoosemiotics of relational communication. The book also includes a previously unpublished piece by Gregory Bateson on wolf behavior and metaphor/ abduction.

Phillip Guddemi is by training a cultural anthropologist and longtime student of cybernetics, biosemiotics, and Gregory Bateson’s work. He was fortunate enough to take classes from Bateson as an undergraduate. (As an anthropologist, he did fieldwork in Papua New Guinea as Gregory Bateson had done decades before.) He is the President of the Bateson Idea Group which works with the Gregory Bateson estate to further the exploration of Gregory Bateson’s ideas and to administer his intellectual rights. He is also a Director of the International Bateson Institute, a nonprofit foundation for transcontextual research, inspired by three generations of Batesons, which examines the interactions within complex systems involving life.
