1st edition hardback with dust jacket Nice copy tall octavo xviii + 350pp., bibliog., indexes, 'Morris Swadesh, one of this century's foremost scientific investigators of language, dedicated much of his life to the study of the origin and evolution of language. This volume, left nearly completed at his death and edited posthumously by Joel F. Sherzer, is his last major study. Swadesh discusses the simple qualities of human speech also present in animal language, and establishes distinctively human techniques of expression by comparing the common features that are found in modern and ancient languages. He treats the diversification of language not only by isolating root words in different languages, but also by dealing with sound systems, with forms of composition, and with sentence structure. In so doing, he demonstrates the evidence for the expansion of all language from a single central area'.

Routledge & Kegan Paul, London, 1972. 1st ed. Cloth. Personal library mark and name on free endpaper. 'In this book Swadesh (?) turns to discovery of new 'reconstructive' methods based on world-wide parallels of form-meaning structure, with of without phonological correlations. What emerges is an inference of the probability of monogenesis because of the weight of evidence of structural similarities. Developmental inferences are postulated for successive evolutionary stages, called eoglottic, paleoglottic and neoglottic. (?) Apparently accepting the prevailing belief that the comparative method, the single unquestioned discovery procedure for penetrating the preliterate linguistic past, could not be hoped to furnish proof of relationship except at fairly shallow time depths, while language itself must have been in use for some hundreds of thousands of years, Swadesh turns to exploration of new resources for making genetic inferences.His proposals are consistently original and worthy of serious consideration.' (MARY LECRON FOSTER in Language in Society, 1972, p.292). From the library of the late Sir Kenneth James Dover.
