The Seeds of Speech

- Language Origin and Evolution

Om The Seeds of Speech

Human language is a weird communication system: it has more in common with birdsong than with the calls of other primates. In this wide-ranging and accessible overview, first published in 2000, Jean Aitchison explores the reasons why language is so strange, outlines recent theories about its origin, and discusses possible paths of evolution.
