Andrew Robinson has now followed up his beautifully illustrated The Story of Writing with a highly appropriate sequel--Lost Languages, on undeciphered scripts. Many, it seems likely, will never be deciphered--which raises an interesting question. If we cannot always understand messages from our fellow humans--how successful will we be when we receive tha first communication from Outer Space?--Sir Arthur C. Clarke
