Предлагаемая вниманию читателя книга известного американского психолога и лингвиста Стивена Пинкера содержит увлекательный и многогранный рассказ о том феномене, которым является человеческий язык, рассматривая его с самых разных точек зрения: собственно лингвистической, биологической, исторической и т.д. «Существуют ли грамматические гены?», «Способны ли шимпанзе выучить язык жестов?», «Контролирует ли наш язык наши мысли?» — вот лишь некоторые из бесчисленных вопросов о языке, поднятые в данном исследовании.

Книга объясняет тайны удивительных явлений, связанных с языком, таких как «мозговитые» младенцы, грамматические гены, жестовый язык у специально обученных шимпанзе, «идиоты»-гении, разговаривающие неандертальцы, поиски праматери всех языков. Повествование ведется живым, легким языком и содержит множество занимательных примеров из современного разговорного английского, в том числе сленга и языка кино и песен.

Книга будет интересна филологам всех специальностей, психологам, этнографам, историкам, философам, студентам и аспирантам гуманитарных факультетов, а также всем, кто изучает язык и интересуется его проблемами.

Для полного понимания книги желательно знание основ грамматики английского языка. Впрочем, большинство фраз на английском языке снабжены русским переводом.
