Computational Phenotypes

Towards an Evolutionary Developmental Biolinguistics

Beschreibung

This book, written accessibly for both biologists and linguists, argues that language is not as exceptional a human trait as some linguists believe it to be. It is rather, according to the authors, just the human version of a fairly common and conservative organic system, the Central Computational Complex.
