The Unfolding of Language: An Evolutionary Tour of Mankind's Greatest Invention

Welcome to The Good Book Club podcast where we all our Bookclub meetings and bonus events available for listeners to enjoy. This episode features our The Good Book Club discussion of “The Unfolding of Language: An Evolutionary Tour of Mankind's Greatest Invention” by Guy Duetscher. This groundbreaking book looks at the origin of language in a new and innovative way. Perhaps the most remarkable conclusion is that even the most elaborate languages are the product not of a single brilliant inventor, but of thousands of ordinary people, creating—almost by accident—one of the most profound and beautiful structures humanity has created. This The Good Book Club meeting was originally held on Sunday, August 13th at 11 am MT.
