Auteur: Armstrong, David F. (Gallaudet University, Washington DC)
Editeur: Cambridge University Press
This book proposes a radical alternative to dominant views of the evolution of language, and in particular the origins of syntax. The authors draw on evidence from areas such as primatology, anthropology, and linguistics, to present a groundbreaking account of the notion that language emerged through visible bodily action.
