In The Oxford Handbook of Language Evolution, sixty leading
scholars present critical accounts of every aspect of the field.
Its five parts are devoted to insights from comparative animal
behavior; the biology of language evolution (anatomy, genetics, and
neurology); the prehistory of language (when and why did language
evolve?); the development of a linguistic species; and language
creation, transmission, and change.
Research on language evolution has burgeoned over the last three
decades. Interdisciplinary activity has produced fundamental
advances in the understanding of language evolution and in human
and primate evolution more generally. The book presents a
wide-ranging summation of work in all the disciplines involved. It
highlights the links in different lines of research, shows what has
been achieved to date, and considers the most promising directions
for future work.
The Oxford Handbook of Language Evolution will be valued by
everyone interested in one of the most productive and fascinating
fields in natural and cognitive science.
