{"product_id":"the-language-of-hunter-gatherers-tom-gldemann-9781107003682","title":"The Language of Hunter-Gatherers","description":"Hunter-gatherers are often portrayed as 'others' standing outside the main trajectory of human social evolution. But even after eleven millennia of agriculture and two centuries of widespread industrialization, hunter-gatherer societies continue to exist. This volume, using the lens of language, offers us a window into the inner workings of twenty-first-century hunter-gatherer societies - how they survive and how they interface with societies that produce more. It challenges long-held assumptions about the limits on social dynamism in hunter-gatherer societies to show that their languages are no different either typologically or sociolinguistically from other languages. With its worldwide coverage, this volume serves as a report on the state of hunter-gatherer societies at the beginning of the twenty-first century, and readers in all geographical areas will find arguments of relevance here.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tom G?demann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107003687\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107003682\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/09\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 742\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.40w x 1.40d","brand":"Tom G?demann","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43924027703551,"sku":"9781107003682","price":182.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_54cbb217-8e33-45b3-9833-ba2c46a50358.jpg?v=1681068052","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-language-of-hunter-gatherers-tom-gldemann-9781107003682","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
