Though there is a contingent of linguists who fight the fact, our
language is always changing--not only through slang, but sound,
syntax, and words' meanings as well. Debunking the myth of "pure"
standard English, tackling controversial positions, and eschewing
politically correct arguments, linguist John McWhorter considers
speech patterns and regional accents to demonstrate just how the
changes do occur. Wielding reason and humor, McWhorter ultimately
explains why we must embrace these changes, ultimately revealing
our American English in all its variety, expressiveness, and power.
