Description

"Takes on the mystery behind the creation of language. From Alfred Russel Wallace, the self-taught Englishman who beat Darwin to the theory of natural selection but later renounced it, to the neo-Darwinists, who for years argued that there is a language 'organ' in the human brain, Wolfe shows how science has repeatedly tried and failed to account for man's gift of gab."--Dust flap.
