The organization of this book is based on the idea that human language has a small set of basic properties, each of which plays a role in the workings of language as an instrument for communication and thought. Each chapter in the book (after this one) introduces a new property. Chapter 2 discusses words and word meaning. Chapter 3 discusses phonological categories, the units that are combined to make word forms. Chapter 4 discusses phonological processes, the ways in which the units of word form interact with one another. Chapter 5 discusses compositionality, the principle that allows complex meanings to be expressed by combinations of words. Chapter 6 discusses how words are organized into larger units and how these allow us to refer to states and events in the world. Chapter 7 discusses how the grammars of languages divide the world into abstract conceptual categories. Chapter 8 discusses the productivity and flexibility of language and how grammar makes this possible. - Amira from Bookmarklet

Andrew Zuckerman book and project. Inspired by idea that one of the greatest gifts one generation can pass to another is the wisdom it has gained from experience, the Wisdom project seeks to create a record of a multicultural group of people who have all made their mark on the world. Presented agains the same white space, all of the subjects are removed from their context, which not only democratizes them, but also allows for a clear dialogue to exist between them. In an attempt to create a more profound, honest, and truly revealing portrait of these luminaries, the project encompasses their voices, their physical presence, andthe written word. This comprehensive portrayal of such a profound and global group is an index of extraordinary perspectives. Source: http://www.wisdombook.org/ - Amira from Bookmarklet

It was Zuckerman's subtitle, but if you asking me.. yes... for instance cultural heritage; philosophy, literature and so on, it isn't only kind of knowledge but also a kind of wisdom which one generation passed to another... There is many sources of wisdom from previous generations, another good question is if we are always able to draw from them... - Amira
