"The Language Impact" is a transdisciplinary book which looks at
language from the point of view of its effect on the world. The
appearance of language on our planet is similar to a natural event
with far-reaching consequences for the evolution of the human
species, the language system and discourse. The author shows in
detail with many examples to what extent language has had and still
has a strong effect on individuals, societies and the earth in
general from the first bonding talk 30,000 years ago to the effects
of the internet in the 21st century A.D. The book serves as a
comprehensive and cutting-edge survey of this emerging field,
covering a wide variety of topics including the phylogeny of
language, Linguistic Relativity (Sapir/Whorf) and Linguistic
Constructivism, Cognitive Linguistics as well as Critical Discourse
Analysis and Discourse Strategies.
