ISBN: 9780226561349 / Angielski / Miękka / 423 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What is the relation between gestures and speech?

In Hand and Mind, David McNeill presents a bold theory of the essential unity of speech and the gestures that accompany it. This long-awaited, provocative study argues that the unity of gestures and language far exceeds the surface level of speech noted by previous...
