Robinson Professor in ANthropoogy and English at George Mason University, and was president of the Institute for Intercultural Studies at the time of publication. In this discussion of difference and sameness, Bateson, a cultural anthropologist, explores not only how progressing through lifes stages affects the fabric of lives--as she did in her earlier book COMPOSING A LIFE--but also how the constant and varied interactions of people produce a familiarity among them without destroying the differences that make them unique.
