Abbagliante... La grande idea di Pinker è che il linguaggio è un istinto... innato per noi come volare lo è per le oche... Le parole difficilmente possono rendere giustizia alla gamma superlativa e alla vivacità delle indagini di Pinker'- Independent'Un libro meravigliosamente leggibile... illumina ogni sfaccettatura del linguaggio umano: la sua origine biologica, la sua unicità per l'umanità, la sua acquisizione da parte dei bambini, la sua struttura grammaticale, la produzione e la percezione del linguaggio, la patologia dei disturbi del linguaggio e l'inarrestabile evoluzione delle lingue e dei dialetti' - Nature
