Review

Our understanding of language―its evolution, acquisition, and processing―is undergoing a seismic shift and this engaging, ambitious book clarifies and motivates the new exciting landscape.

Adele E. Goldberg, Professor of Psychology, Princeton University

This book is unique in its attempt to take a usage-based and unified approach to the sciences of language: its evolution, historical change, processing, and acquisition. It covers an extraordinarily wide range of relevant and up-to-date literature from which it builds an important theoretical approach. It provides the foundation for asking all the fundamental questions in language research.

Elena Lieven, Professor, ESRC LuCiD Child Study Centre, University of Manchester; coauthor of Child Language Acquisition: Contrasting Theoretical Approaches

Christiansen and Chater's Creating Language presents a compelling account of how acquisition and processing mutually constrain one another in shaping both linguistic performance and the nature of language. Then, to top it off, they fearlessly touch the linguistic third rail, language evolution, and the time scales shift from milliseconds and months, to millennia. The book will excite controversy, but it most certainly will excite.

Gary S. Dell, Professor of Psychology, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
