Semiosis as a book category focuses on the processes and politics of meaning-making: how signs, symbols, languages, media and behaviors create, transmit and distort meaning across minds, cultures and species. It embraces nonfiction—philosophy, semiotics, linguistics, media theory and cultural criticism—that analyzes communication systems and interpretation, as well as fiction—literary, speculative and experimental works—that dramatize translation, miscommunication, emergent sign-systems (including encounters with alien, animal or plant intelligences), and the social consequences of shifting meanings. Semiosis titles tend to be intellectually probing and often playful or unsettling, rewarding readers interested in how understanding is constructed, hijacked or transformed.
