Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the fundamental distinction between humans and animals, arguing that language offers one of the clearest examples of this gulf. While animals use sign language, only humans can truly speak rationally. The author argues that the birth of human reason coincides with the ability to perceive the power of words in relation to each other. In this way, true rational speech, unique to human language, is born. This distinction is echoed in all other areas of human endeavor. For example, while animals construct nests and dams, only humans infuse their art with conscious, deliberate purpose. This book ultimately suggests that the distinction between humans and animals lies not only in the degree of their abilities, but also in the kind.
