First sentence: As theorized and practised by Charles Sanders Peirce (see biographical note, p. 79), the science of signs or semiotics ('semeiotic' is the term he preferred; cf. Fisch 1986) offers a unified perspective on a potentially infinite series of sign manifestations or semioses, traditionally covered by a vast range of studies and areas of research.
