Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Printed in the U.S.A. [Date from the copyright page.] First Printing. Preface, Bibliography, Indexes; xii, 307 pages. The lime-green simulated-cloth is just slightly rubbed at the bottom edge, with black lettering bright on the spine. The interior is… bright, crisp, and completely clean. The colorful unclipped dust jacket is a bit rubbed and has a few tiny chips along the edges. [Please see my five images of the actual book.] "[I]ncluded here are anthropologists, communicolists, educators, linguists, psychologists, semanticists, sociologists, and even novelists. The value of this diversity of authorship, I think, is that the universality of language and its central position in human behavior becomes clearer when it is seen from different and even opposing points of view." (From the Preface.) Contributors include: Paul Goodman, George Orwell, Bertrand Russell, Noam Chomsky, S.I. Hayakawa, Ashley Montagu, and twenty others. As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage. All books are wrapped with special care and are shipped promptly with tracking; international sales sent via global priority, also with tracking.
