| Description: |
Rhythms, conceptual metaphors, and political language convey meanings of which Chinese speakers themselves may not be aware. This book contributes to the debate over whether language shapes thought or vice versa, and its comparison of English with Chinese lends support to theories that locate the origins of language in the brain. |
