Understanding how communication works in society is a crucial part of social psychology; this groundbreaking work by Ruesch and Bateson explains themes vital to understanding the subject.

Each chapter discusses a new facet of communication; the contexts of promoting harmony and cultural mores between humans, how faults in communication act to announce mental illness, how beliefs and comprehension are solidified. The recurring theme - that communication is a complex interplay of factors, a matrix by which the psychologist can know society - leads on to theoretical discussions of cybernetics: how humans, and the regulated systems and structures they have created, may be understood.
