The First Word: The Search for the Origins of Language Tapa blanda - 2008
de Christine Kenneally
Kenneally writes a compelling story of the quest for the origins of human language. The book follows both how language developed, and tells why scientists are at last able to explore the subject.
Resumen
An accessible exploration of a burgeoning new field: the incredible evolution of language
The first popular book to recount the exciting, very recent developments in tracing the origins of language, The First Word is at the forefront of a controversial, compelling new field. Acclaimed science writer Christine Kenneally explains how a relatively small group of scientists that include Noam Chomsky and Steven Pinker assembled the astounding narrative of how the fundamental process of evolution produced a linguistic ape?in other words, us. Infused with the wonder of discovery, this vital and engrossing book offers us all a better understanding of the story of humankind.
