Language development

Language is humanity's greatest invention, yet no one ever invented it. This paradox underlies our fascination with language, and it also underlies many of its mysteries.
Who, after all, invented such a complex and multilayered system as language? Can the origin of its structure be traced? Or is it of divine origin, sent down to Adam fully formed? How does language shape a person's way of life and the destiny of a nation? Why do some languages change dramatically over time, while others remain virtually unchanged? What role do metaphors play in the formation of linguistic structures? What is the essence of such a large-scale phenomenon as word order differences across languages?
The author explores these and other questions in this book, drawing on current research in modern linguistics.
