Is it an artifact of our culture or written in our very DNA? In recent years, the leading linguists have seemingly settled the issue: all languages are fundamentally the same and the particular language we speak does not shape our thinking in any significant way. Guy Deutscher says they're wrong. Audacious, delightful, and provocative, Through the Language Glass is destined to become a classic of intellectual discovery.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0312610491\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.0312610491.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Deutscher, Guy\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition.
