A propos de cet article

Print on Demand. This book explores the nature and function of speech, a ubiquitous human phenomenon that enables social adaptation and control through reciprocal stimulation. Speech is the means by which individuals coordinate their diverse activities, cooperate, and influence one another's attitudes and decisions. The author argues that speech is not simply a means of expressing oneself, but primarily a tool for producing effects in others. The book examines the intricate relationship between speech and thought, exploring the ways in which they are mutually dependent. The author provides a detailed analysis of the development of speech in individuals, from the earliest prelinguistic vocalizations to the acquisition of articulate language. The book concludes by emphasizing the significance of speech in human life, arguing that it is the essential mechanism through which we adapt to our social environment and achieve our goals. This book offers a comprehensive and insightful exploration of speech, providing valuable insights into its origins, development, and role in human society.
