Book Description:
|
This volume offers a linguistic window into twenty-first-century hunter-gatherer societies - how they survive and interface with agricultural and industrial societies. It challenges assumptions regarding the lack of social dynamism in hunter-gatherer societies and shows that their languages are no different from other languages.
