During the last few decades we have discovered enormous amounts
about our genomes, their evolution and, importantly for linguists
and language scientists, the genetic foundations of language and
speech. Accessible and readable, this introduction is designed
specifically for students and researchers working in language and
linguistics. It carefully focuses on the most relevant concepts,
methods and findings in the genetics of language and speech, and
covers a wide range of topics such as heritability, the molecular
mechanisms through which genes influence our language, and the
evolutionary forces affecting them. Filling a large gap in the
literature, this essential guide explores relevant examples
including hearing loss, stuttering, dyslexia, brain growth and
development, as well as the normal range of variation. It also
contains a helpful glossary of terms, and a wide range of
references so the reader can pursue topics of interest in more
depth.
