Steven Pinker is one of the world's leading authorities on language and the mind. His popular and highly praised books include The Stuff of Thought, The Blank Slate, Words and Rules, How the Mind Works, and The Language Instinct. The recipient of several major awards for his teaching, books, and scientific research, Pinker is Harvard College Professor and Johnstone Family Professor of Psychology at Harvard University. He also writes frequently for The New York Times, Time, The New Republic, and other magazines.
In this classic, the world's expert on language and mind lucidly explains everything you always wanted to know about language: how it works, how children learn it, how it changes, how the brain computes it, and how it evolved. With deft use of examples of humor and wordplay, Steven Pinker weaves our vast knowledge of language into a compelling story: language is a human instinct, wired into our brains by evolution. The Language Instinct received the William James Book Prize from the American Psychological Association and the Public Interest Award from the Linguistics Society of America. This edition includes an update on advances in the science of language since The Language Instinct was first published.

評分 評分平剋寫作比較喜歡玩弄辭藻,論證的方式也是那種聰明人的方式,經常看完一段不明所以,結果下一段他就說彆的去瞭,也就是說,你明白就好,不明白那就拜托瞭你往迴翻幾頁,重新看起。 因為這種寫作方式,這本書看到一半差點崩潰,但因為內容很好,捨不得半途而廢,還是堅持下來瞭...
評分不記得怎麼買瞭這本書,隻知道一直放在書架,一直沒有讀完。直到這一次長時間宅在傢裏,終於一次性讀完瞭。 幾個收獲: 關於單詞,詞根—詞乾--單詞 關於句子:對句法分析有瞭不同的感受 對一些生理上的構造有瞭瞭解:聲門、左腦、邊緣係統、大腦皮質——真正的語言區坐落於大...

為嘛我覺得這本書一點都不好看.整本書都是告訴你"WHY the language is instinct ".囉嗦這麼多,到底是給多死硬的人類至上者看的啊
評分Black American English (BAE)相對於Standard American English (SAE) 來說,其實簡化得更少,錶達更精準。允許pidgin的齣現,其實我覺得chinglish也沒啥不好的
評分對於語言最全麵最科普的介紹瞭,集閤瞭多方麵的知識,幽默生動。
評分小組一起看完的,其實很多觀點我覺得值得商榷,主觀性比較強,並沒有理論依據。
評分作者太可愛瞭,從頭到尾都在賣萌,最後來瞭個shameless self-promotion
