Hardback. Zustand: Good. Berwick and Chomsky draw on recent developments in linguistic theory to offer an evolutionary account of language and humans' remarkable, species-specific ability to acquire it.A loosely connected collection of four essays that will fascinate anyone interested in the extraordinary phenomenon of language.--New York Review of BooksWe are born crying, but those cries signal the first stirring of language. Within a year or so, infants master the sound system of their language; a few years after that, they are engaging in conversations. This remarkable, species-specific ability to acquire any human language--the language faculty--raises important biological questions about language, including how it has evolved. This book by two distinguished scholars--a computer scientist and a linguist--addresses the enduring question of the evolution of language.Robert Berwick and Noam Chomsky explain that until recently the evolutionary question could not be properly posed, because we did not have a clear idea of how to define language and therefore what it was that had evolved. But since the Minimalist Program, developed by Chomsky and others, we know the key ingredients of language and can put together an account of the evolution of human language and what distinguishes us from all other animals.Berwick and Chomsky discuss the biolinguistic perspective on language, which views language as a particular object of the biological world; the computational efficiency of language as a system of thought and understanding; the tension between Darwin's idea of gradual change and our contemporary understanding about evolutionary change and language; and evidence from nonhuman animals, in particular vocal learning in songbirds.…

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Nacemos llorando. Y esos lloros son los primeros indicios del lenguaje. Al año de nacer, los niños dominan el sistema de sonidos de su lengua; y, más tarde, ya mantienen conversaciones. Esta extraordinaria facultad humana plantea importantes interrogantes biológicos en torno al lenguaje. En este libro dos eminentes eruditos abordan en profundidad el fascinante interrogante de la evolución del lenguaje. Hasta hace poco no se podía plantear adecuadamente el tema, porque ni siquiera sabíamos definir con propiedad el «lenguaje». Pero a partir del Programa Minimalista, desarrollado por Chomsky y otros, ahora conocemos los ingredientes clave del lenguaje y somos capaces de ofrecer una explicación de la evolución del lenguaje humano y de lo que nos distingue de los demás animales. Berwick y Chomsky ahondan en la eficacia computacional del lenguaje en tanto que sistema de pensamiento y conocimiento; del conflicto entre la idea darwinista de cambio gradual y nuestro modo actual de ver el cambio evolutivo y el lenguaje; y de evidencias obtenidas en animales no humanos, especialmente en torno al aprendizaje de vocales en aves cantoras. El resultado es un hito en el abordaje biolingüístico del lenguaje. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Hardcover. Zustand: Like New. First Edition. A firm and square hardback with sharp corners and strong joints, just showing a few very minor cosmetic rubs. Hence a non-text page has a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book is actually in nearly new condition and appears unread. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight; no pen-marks. Now offered for sale at a very sensible price.…
