A little book of language

David Crystal

£10.99

With a language disappearing every two weeks and neologisms springing up almost daily, an understanding of the origins and currency of language has never seemed more relevant. In this volume, a narrative history written explicitly for a young audience, expert linguist David Crystal proves why the story of language deserves retelling.
