In this fascinating book, Steven Pinker explores the relationship between language and human nature. Through a deep and accessible analysis, Pinker reveals how the words we use and the way we use them reflect our way of thinking and understanding the world. From the names we choose for our children to the expressions we use to persuade or manipulate, language becomes a privileged window to understand the essence of what makes us human. With his characteristic wit and clear style, Pinker addresses scientific and everyday questions, offering a stimulating and entertaining view on the power of language in our lives.
