Description

Explore the complexities of how human communication began with this academic volume from Oxford University Press. This collection presents new approaches to the study of language evolution, offering fresh perspectives on how researchers can interpret the origins of speech and grammar. By bringing together leading scholars from linguistics, primatology, anthropology, and cognitive science, the book examines how language evolution is understood through inference. It looks at linked or analogous phenomena across several scientific disciplines, including animal behavior, genetics, neurology, culture, and biology. In the introduction, the editors explain how these different scientific approaches can be used together. By applying comparable forms of inference and studying similar conditions, researchers can build a more complete picture of linguistic development. This text is designed for those looking to understand the current state of research and the future implications for the field of cognitive science.
