Focusing on the scientific study of communication, this book is a systematic examination. To that end, the natural, social, cultural, and rational scientific perspectives on communication are presented and then brought together in one unifying framework of the semiotic square, showing how all four views are interconnected. The question of whether the study of communication can be considered a unique science is addressed. It is argued that communication is never separate from any object of study and thus we always deal with its manifestations, captured in the four scientific perspectives discussed in the book.

Industry Reviews

"Written in a clear and often witty style, the book presents sophisticated thinking on the identity of communication studies. It will be of interest not only to philosophically oriented communication scholars and advanced students, but to readers across a wide range of other fields such as semiotics, science studies, rhetoric of science, interdisciplinary humanities, and education." â¢ Robert T. Craig, University of Colorado Boulder

"Throughout this magnificent work, Igor E. Klyukanov links the different "sciences" of communication and takes issue with the so-called "post-communication" problematic of incommensurability. He grapples with how distinctive genres of discourse on/about/through communication can be linked, or as he puts it, situated in the same House of Being." â¢ Andrew R. Smith, Edinboro University, PA
