< >The volume draws from Charles S. Peirce's pragmatic philosophy, contemporary arts and sciences, and Buddhist philosophy in developing the concepts ofinterconnectedness self-organization, andco-participation of the knowing subject with respect tocontradictory, omplementarycoalesce ce. Contradictions can be complementarily, although vaguely and ambiguously, resolved by mediation through coalescent processes, which place Peirce's notion ofsemiosis in a contemporary, interdisciplinary context.
