"The author substantiates claims about the 'written language bias' using arguments and points from the theory and philosophy of language, phonology, grammar, lexicology, semantics, pragmatics, theory of text and discourse. Special attention is given to the notion of the single, unitary language, the distinction between language and speech, the view on language as a set of abstract objects and rules, the sentence as the fundamental unit of language, among other themes. Although the book focuses on mainstream linguistics, it also sketches an alternative theory of language which describes language use and talk-in-interaction in dialogical terms and as embodied, social action distributed in time."--Jacket.
