Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about languages and the people who love them. Sophie Hardach is here to guide us through the strange and wonderful ways that humans have used languages throughout history. She takes us from the earliest Mesopotamian clay tablets and the 'book cemeteries' of medieval synagogues to the first sounds a child hears in their mother's womb and their incredible capacity for language learning. Along the way, Hardach explores the role of trade in transmitting words across cultures and untangles riddles of hieroglyphics, cuneiform and the ancient scripts of Crete and Cyprus. This is a book about languages, the people who love them and the linguistic threads that connect us all. 'Impeccably researched and engagingly presented... Sophie Hardach tells wonderful stories about words that have travelled vast distances in space and time to make English what it is' David Bellos, author of Is That a Fish in Your Ear?

Book Synopsis From Lucy to Language by : Donald Johanson
Download or read book From Lucy to Language written by Donald Johanson and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Between 6 and 7 million years ago, Earth experienced a global cooling period, which resulted in a drier climate in many areas of the world. In East Africa, what had been heavily wooded forest began to change over to savannah grasslands. Animals that had adapted to the dense forests encountered new challenges and had to adapt to more open environments among them one or more populations of relatively large apes." "Different animals adopted various strategies to survive in this new environment. At least one population of apes did what no other animal had done before (or since, which was to stand up and routinely move about on two legs." "This revolution in behavior will probably never by fully explained. Compared to walking on four legs, bipedal locomotion is slow, clumsy, energetically inefficient, and fraught with opportunities for injury. Yet, being upright endowed these apes with certain advantages, such as enhanced visibility and better thermoregulation. Certainly the ability to habitually walk on two legs freed their hands to carry food and manipulate stones and other objects in the environment, an ability that looms large in the evolution of humans. Whatever the reasons, this unparalleled evolutionary innovation conveyed significant adaptive advantage to these creatures. And with this advantage, succeed these bipedal apes certainly did." "By 2 million years ago they began to surge out of Africa, north into Europe and east into the Near East, China, and beyond into the Indonesian archipelago." "As the archaeological evidence of their technologically advanced tools and luminous cave paintings demonstrates, they brought with them the beginnings of modern human culture - language, art, religion, and science." "Today we are the sole and last representative of that group of apes who, in standing up on two legs for the first time, began the amazing evolutionary journey described in From Lucy to Language. The deepest message of this story, and thus of this book, is that we, like all other creatures large and small, are of this Earth. Yes, we are the most intelligent and most cooperative of all animals that have ever existed but also the most dangerous. We must realize that we are not the final product of evolution on Earth. Our species, like all others, is an evolutionary work in progress. Earth is our birthplace and our home. We must use the great powers with which evolution has endowed us to respect and nurture Earth, for despite our technological hubris, life on Earth will go on with or without us."--BOOK JACKET.
