It is tempting to take the tremendous rate of contemporary linguistic change for granted. What is required, in fact, is a radical reinterpretation of what language is. This book begins with an examination of the modes of communication used by dolphins, birds and primates as the first contexts in which the concept of 'language' might be applied.
