Carstairs-McCarthy, Andrew (Professor and Head of Department of Linguistics, Professor and Head of Department of Linguistics, University of Canterbury, New Zealand)
Proposing a theory of the origins of human language ability and presenting an account of the early evolution of language, this text explains why humans are the only language-using animals, challenges the assumption that language is due to intelligence, and offers a perspective on human uniqueness.
