The stuff of thought language as a window into human nature

Steven Pinker (Author)
Analyses what words actually mean and how we use them, and reveals what this can tell us about ourselves. This work also shows how we use space and motion as metaphors for more abstract ideas, and uncovers the deeper structures of human thought that have been shaped by evolutionary history.
