Mothering plus vocalization doesn't equal language
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 27 (4):504-505 (2004)
| Abstract | Falk has much of interest to say on the evolution of mothering, but she fails to address the core issue of language evolution: how symbolism or structure evolved. Control of infants does not require either, and Falk provides neither evidence nor arguments supporting referential symbolism as a component of mother-infant interactions. | |||||||||
