The Primacy of Grammar

A proposal that the biolinguistic approach to human languages may have identified, beyond the study of language, a specific structure of the human mind.

Review

"It is a sign of maturity for any given field that a philosopher should reflect on its foundations. When the philosopher understands the field in its technical minutiae, it is a privilege, even a contribution. Moreover, given its approach and scope, a work like Mukherji's should reach a wide audience beyond linguistics, which is vital for the dissemination of the biolinguistics project that he elegantly introduces." --Juan Uriagereka, Department of Linguistics, University of Maryland
