Human expression and experience: What does it mean to have language?
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 25 (5):643-644 (2002)
| Abstract | We support Shanker & King's (S&K's) proposal for a dynamic systems approach in ape language research, but question their vision of what it means to have language. Language plays an essential role in the making of the human mind. It underlies any kind of human interaction and codetermines perception and action. Moreover, what gives human thought the very characteristic architecture of textuality criterially requires a third party. | |||||||||
