Language: The Cultural Tool Main edition
Everett, Daniel (Dean of Arts and Sciences at Bentley University)
Fusing adventure, anthropology, linguistics and psychology, and drawing on Everett's pioneering research with the Amazonian Pirahas, this book argues that language is embedded within - and is inseparable from - its specific culture. It presents the controversial idea that language is not an innate component of the brain.
