Do birds really 'talk?' What language did Jesus speak? Will ongoing advances in technology ever produce true human-machine dialogue? In Daniel Tammet's new book, author of the bestsellers Born On A Blue Day and Thinking in Numbers, language savant and polyglot Daniel Tammet turns his attention to the world of language and how it shapes the human experience.From native Esperanto speakers and Queen Elizabeth's French, to spatial semantics and aspirational vowels, with synaesthetic color, wit, and reflection, this is a delightful, astute, poetic romp through the mesmerizing world of language.
