More about the book

The exploration of language evolution reveals that the nearly 7,000 languages today stem from a complex history rather than innate instincts. Daniel L. Everett challenges established theories, drawing on 60,000 generations of human development and his extensive fieldwork among Amazonian hunter-gatherers. This captivating narrative not only highlights the role of language in shaping humanity's dominance but also provides profound insights into what it means to be human.
