Description: What Sign Language Reveals About the Mind
M. Fox - Imagine a village where everyone "speaks" sign language. In an isolated Bedouin community in Israel, an indigenous sign language has “sprung up”, without the influence of other languages. Reporter and linguist Margalit Fox and fellow researchers attempt to decode this indigenous sign language and isolate the essential ingredients for all human language. But, they find they are in a race against time as the teams very presence endangers the uniqueness of this indigenous language. Written in lyrical prose. (368pgs, 6-1/2" x 9-3/4" softcover)
