[ 5.0 stars ] "This seems to be worth 4.99 stars for content and I would round up to 6.0 (if possible) for Deutscher's style and humor, even if the content were not as good. This is an excellent introduction to the current state of investigation of the relationship between thought and language.

[ 5.0 stars ] "This is a great book which takes you through a rollercoaster ride of language and how concepts varied through time.Language is what allows you to communicate but it also constrains your type of expression.

[ 4.0 stars ] "A lot more anthropology than I was expecting, but I was happily surprised. The author is clever and funny, but he really likes his word games and seems to be constantly saying "See what I did there?" Yes, I did, but the obvious pratfalls get old about halfway through. However, I really enjoyed his tone and I was content with what I learned about the evolution of language. I look forward to another ..." Courtesy by Amazon
