THIS BOOK
From time immemorial, language was seen as a fascinating enigma by
many. It included philosophers, religious men, psychologists, politicians,
and sometimes even the layman. To answer the big question ‘what is
language?’ this book opens the door to the most famous specialists over
a large and long range in time and space. It starts from ancient Panini to
modern structuralists and cognitivists such as Saussure Bloomfield and
Chomsky.
