Willing to Learn: Passages of Personal Discovery
Steerforth Press, September 2004 ISBN: 1586420801 (distributed by Random House) This collection of Bateson's work can be read as a memoir of unfolding curiosity, for it brings together essays and occasional pieces, many of them previously unpublished or unknown to readers who know the author only from her books, written in the course of an unconventional career. Bateson is a singular thinker whose work enriches lives by bringing fresh, original ideas to subjects that affect all of our lives. Willing to Learn is at once an articulation and an exemplar of the composition of Bateson's own life's work. |

Full Circles, Overlapping Lives:
Culture and Generation in Transition [2000] Ballantine Books, 2001 ISBN: 0345423577 In this book, Mary Catherine Bateson advances the approach developed in Composing a Life, looking at how our very concepts of personal identity and shared fulfillment are changing. Bateson explores her theme by weaving together the words of a group of remarkable women whom she taught at Spelman College. The lives of these women—young, old, black, white, married, single, gay or straight—offer a prism through which we all can glimpse facets of ourselves. |
