Language, Frogs and Savants: More Linguistic Problems, Puzzles and Polemics by Neil Smith is an engaging collection of essays exploring intriguing and often unconventional questions about language, cognition, and communication. A follow-up to his earlier work Modern Linguistics: The Results of Chomsky's Revolution, this book blends scholarly insight with humor and curiosity.
Smith addresses topics ranging from language disorders and linguistic savants to the role of frogs in communication research, weaving together observations from philosophy, neurology, and linguistics. Each chapter is structured around a linguistic puzzle or problem and accompanied by critical discussion, making it accessible to both specialists and curious general readers.
