Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book relies upon the revolutionary work of James Jerome Gibson and his ecological approach to perception in order to reconstruct some basic assumptions about sensing, knowing, and learning. Instead of a closed system, Gibson's work can be understood as corresponding to an open-systems universe. Learning has to do with how bodily-perceptive systems attend to the inexhaustible and inherently meaningful reality in which we discover ourselves.
