Phonological Architecture

Discover the fascinating intersection of linguistics and biology in Phonological Architecture by Bridget D. Samuels, published by Oxford University Press. This insightful book, spanning 266 pages, offers a comprehensive exploration of phonology through a biological lens. Samuels adopts a back-to-basics approach, deconstructing phonology into its primitive operations and representations while delving into their potential origins in cognitive abilities observed across the animal kingdom. Ideal for students and researchers in the fields of biolinguistics and phonetics, this work provides a unique perspective that enhances our understanding of language and its evolutionary roots. Whether you are a linguist, a biologist, or simply curious about the foundations of phonology, Phonological Architecture is an essential addition to your library.
