On the descriptive terminology of the information transfer between organisms

by Jolanta Koszteyn and Piotr Lenartowicz SJ

In other words the "information transfer" is a multi-layer reality. The investigation of the "causal" mechanisms presupposes a proper description of the phenomenal effects. It is the phenomenal sphere of the directly observable events which provokes - in our mind - the questions driving the effort to explore the "mechanisms".
