Steven Pinker is one of the world's leading authorities on language and the mind. His popular and highly praised books include The Stuff of Thought, The Blank Slate, Words and Rules, How the Mind Works, and The Language Instinct. The recipient of several major awards for his teaching, books, and scientific research, Pinker is Harvard College Professor and Johnstone Family Professor of Psychology at Harvard University. He also writes frequently for The New York Times, Time, The New Republic, and other magazines.
In this classic, the world's expert on language and mind lucidly explains everything you always wanted to know about language: how it works, how children learn it, how it changes, how the brain computes it, and how it evolved. With deft use of examples of humor and wordplay, Steven Pinker weaves our vast knowledge of language into a compelling story: language is a human instinct, wired into our brains by evolution. The Language Instinct received the William James Book Prize from the American Psychological Association and the Public Interest Award from the Linguistics Society of America. This edition includes an update on advances in the science of language since The Language Instinct was first published.

评分我猜大部分linguistics专业的人都有思考过一个问题,我们怎样跟别人“科普”这样一门小众冷门被误解极深的专业呢?我曾经想过的一种思路是告诉别人我们究竟在研究什么。然而在这本书里,我看到Pinker采取了另一种思路来进行科普,即告诉大家人类语言为什么值得研究。 似乎很多...
评分《语言本能》:人类语言进化的奥秘(The Language Instinct: How the Mind Creater Language)是史蒂芬‧平克(Steven Pinker)的一部革命性著作。 对于这样一本语言学大作,再加上各路大牛的如潮好评,我感觉阅读压力的巨大,担心由于读不好而降低了书的价值。但同时也充满...
评分这个书的中心思想,就是说,人的语言是与生俱来的,不管你最后说的是中文、英文、西班牙文还是非洲的斯瓦西里话……你说的都是“人话”,只要是“人话”,就是大脑可以学习的范畴。 这种学习“人话”的功能,不用教,我们与生俱来。就好像走路、吃饭、睡觉、做爱一样,都是天...
评分这版忍无可忍的语病/翻译错误列一下 【】内是我的翻译或吐槽。非英文专业,有错误请指出。 P54 head, fall, me no good 头,掉下来了,我没有用了 【头,摔到了,我感觉不太好】 P79 he manipulates the sculptures in his mind's eye 他在脑内操弄他的雕像 【不能用摆弄吗啊...
勉强啃完,这说话风格真的不易读,但是那种略带嘲讽的幽默感真喜欢!虽说很赞同天生的语法结构,但是总觉得就是这个结构再破坏pure language of thought。从本人十几年前「日语听说毫无压力完全不懂日语语法」到现在「日语语法毫无压力而进便利店买东西时都不会说了」的经验更加确定这种结构分析带来的弊端。
评分对于语言最全面最科普的介绍了,集合了多方面的知识,幽默生动。
评分e文版比中文版好 得多得多得多 翻译有时候起到董存瑞的作用
评分看小孩学习说话的过程应该是一件很有趣的事情~
评分其实是很好的evolutionist的立场的阐释...能应付许多低级的攻击。过了这个槛,才是有意义的讨论。
