More about the book

Words are aspects of a much wider communicative context, most of which is not verbal at all. Yet words also have a nature peculiarly their own. And when discussing them as modes of action, we must consider this nature as words in themselves and the nature they get from the non-verbal scenes that support their acts. This book deals with this topic.
