My sense from Bateson's later work is that Bateson is talking in a much
more general sense than Argyris. Bateson includes biological evolution as
a learning process in _Mind and Nature_. For Bateson the relationship
between two levels is key. A higher order of learning is *about* learning
at the lower level. Argyris' work is about one such layering of learning
while Bateson discusses the relationship between levels of learning
generally.
