Linguistics falls in the gap between arts and science, on the edges of which the most fascinating discoveries and the most important problems are found. Rather than following the conventional organization of many contemporary introductions to the subject, the author of this stimulating guide begins his discussion with the oldest, 'arts' end of the subject and moves chronologically through to the newest research - the 'science' aspects. A series of short thematic chapters look in turn at such areas as the prehistory of languages and their common origins, language and evolution, language in time and space (the nature of change inherent in language), grammars and dictionaries (how systematic is language?), and phonetics. Explication of the newest discoveries pertaining to language in the brain completes the coverage of all major aspects of linguistics from a refreshing and insightful angle.

我為什麼覺得頭痛且對於新學期沒有任何passion 這本書裏麵有些有趣的例子
評分語言學傢治療失眠的方法是看語法書,而且還看齣瞭重大發現,也是醉瞭
評分這麼小一本書我居然讀瞭好幾個星期,可見寫得有多不吸引人瞭...不過還是有一些有趣的真知灼見的。作者在書裏麵反復強調abstraction,想來確實是很重要的能力,也是需要時刻謹記的assumption。
評分"The systems linguists study are abstractions from our conscious understanding of our minds and our behaviour."
