"...simply the best popular science book I have read in years.... He takes us way beyond Chomsky."
Spectator - Simon Jenkins (11/18/1995)

"...a wonderfully accessible version of the theory that 'language is no more a cultural invention than is upright posture'..."
Times Literary Supplement - Paul Muldoon (12/01/1995)
