Exploring how language shapes our view of the world and what that means for human thought. This insightful discussion examines why people tend to see objects as subjects, and how that bias might lie at the heart of language, culture, and knowledge.
In these pages, the author traces a bold line from social acts to speech, and from speech to reason. He argues that language grows from how we act together, then transforms our experience by reimagining nature as something with thoughts and intentions. The result is a provocative look at how humanity moved from common actions to the words and ideas that define civilization.
