Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Spatial language that is, the way in which languages structure the spatial domain is an important area of current research, offering new insights into one of the most central areas of human cognition. In this pioneering collection, a team of leading linguists and psychologists review the spatial domain across a wide variety of languages. Contrary to existing assumptions, they show that there is great variation in the way space is conceptually structured across languages, thus substantiating the controversial question of how far the foundations of human cognition are innate.
