Acknowledgements
If it takes a village to raise a child, then writing a book requires at the least a coherent community of support. This book is no different, and I have been blessed with some considerable and high calibre support, which I would like to briefly acknowledge. Thank you to Gabriel Everington from Palgrave Macmillan for his support on behalf of the Pivot series of books, and to Madeleine Holder before him. Also, thanks to Klaus W. Mueller from Carl-Auer Verlag GmbH for their generosity in allowing me to use images from one of their published interviews with Humberto Maturana. My deep appreciation to Humberto Maturana, and the late Francisco Varela, whose work has been the primary source of inspiration for this book, and to Professor Ray Ison for reviewing the initial proposal and endorsing it to Palgrave.

I would also like to extend my appreciation to Professor Mark Lemon for many stimulating hours of bouncing ideas ba
