An Ecology of Mind

2010

'An Ecology of Mind' is a filmic portrait of anthropologist, biologist, and psychotherapist Gregory Bateson. Bateson believed that, 'The major problems in the world are the result of the difference between the way nature works and the way people think.'

'Looking at what holds systems together is a radical step toward sewing the world back together, from the inside.'
