About this title

Synopsis

The Language Of Politics: Studies In Quantitative Semantics is a book written by Harold D. Lasswell that delves into the language used in political discourse. The book focuses on the use of quantitative semantics to analyze the language used in political communication. Lasswell argues that the language used in political discourse is often ambiguous and can be interpreted in different ways, which can lead to misunderstandings and miscommunications. The book provides a framework for analyzing the language used in political discourse and offers insights into how politicians use language to manipulate public opinion. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of political language and communication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
