But this, in fact, is where we have to demur. The word ‘communicate’ in itself is of very little importance; nor is the fact that ‘the word “signal” contains the word “sign”’, whatever that ‘contains’ is taken to mean. What is important is the system of meanings that constitute a scientific theory of communication (that is, of semiotic systems and processes), and the lexicogrammatical resources (the ‘wordings’ as a whole) by which these meanings are construed. And here we come to a problem and a paradox.
Dissipative structures introduce probably one of the simplest physical mechanisms for communication. (Prigogine and Stengers, 1984, pp. 147–8) Here ‘communicate’ is picked out as a ‘key word’, a word that is ‘of obvious importance in so many fields’. But this, in fact, is where we have to demur. The word ‘communicate’ in itself is of very little importance; nor is the fact that ‘the word “signal” contains the word “sign”’, whatever that ‘contains’ is taken to mean. What is important is the system of meanings that constitute a scientific theory of communication (that is, of semiotic systems and processes), and the lexicogrammatical resources (the ‘wordings’ as a whole) by which these meanings are construed.
Working in this way we can start to build up an overall picture of taxonomizing as a social practice, its evolution in the discipline (the special concern of Gould’s book) and its interrelationships with other science practices. For example, in the second footnote directly following the footnote just considered, we learn that some flora, unlike fauna, may indeed have disparate ancestries, since hybridization between distinct lineages occurs frequently. 2: Construal of Grouping Principles in Text be transferred laterally by viruses across species boundaries, a process which may have been important in the evolution of some unicellular creatures.
