Judith;

I agree that Bateson has much to say regarding how it is we become what it is
we become. In that same direction I have been thinking that this debate
between empiricism and a dialectic is somewhat of a semantic debate. Dewey
didn't accept the dialectic but he did write about experience and nature,
James wrote about the object and subject. These empiricists spoke about the
principles that the dialectic speaks to they just called it something else.
I know that it is not as simple as agreeing on verbage but reality IS reality
we may just not truely understand WHAT reality is yet.
