Imitation systems, monkey vocalization, and the human language
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 28 (2):133-134 (2005)
| Abstract | In offering a detailed view of putative steps towards the emergence of language from a cognitive standpoint, Michael Arbib is also introducing an evolutionary framework that can be used as a useful tool to confront other viewpoints on language evolution, including hypotheses that emphasize possible alternatives to suggestions that language could not have emerged from an earlier primate vocal communication system. | |||||||||
