Linguistics Editorial Review
This book titled "How Language Began: The Story of Humanity's Greatest Invention" written by Daniel Everett explores the fascinating origins of human language, dating back to Homo Erectus mental development couple of million years ago. The author draws from his extensive research and understanding of linguistics and convincingly argues that human language is not innate and that it evolved as humans developed and needed a more effective form of communication. However, the author received criticism for his failure to provide adequate evidence to support some of his claims.
