Expecting the Earth
Book • 2016
In *Expecting the Earth*, Wendy Wheeler formulates a history and theory of biosemiotic and proto-biosemiotic thinking, drawing on philosophers like Charles Sanders Peirce and Jakob von Uexküll.
The book explores how living organisms evolve in conversation with their semiotic environments, integrating biology, aesthetics, and technology.
It argues for a shift beyond gene-centrism and mechanism, emphasizing the role of information and communication in biological systems.
