Sommario/riassunto |
|
"Shows how China will most likely address its growing oil energy dependence. Eberling's study uses scenario analysis and the PRINCE model to determine what will be the most likely U.S. foreign policy consequences, stemming from the most current literature available on energy security and foreign policy. Chinese Energy Futures also contributes to the literature on Chinese and United States energy security, foreign policy, political economy, and political risk analysis."--Publisher's description. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Apes cannot talk; nor are they left or right handed. In this engaging account of language, evolution, and the brain, Michael Corballis shows why these two facts are intimately connected. Humans alone can learn and manipulate language because of a biological device in the left hemisphere of the brain (a specialization that causes handedness). In fascinating detail, he describes how this device emerged through the evolutionary pressures faced by our ancestors. He then shows how it works in a deft account of symbols, grammar, and vocabulary. Ranging across anthropology, biology, and linguistics, this book offers an engrossing look at what makes humans so unique. |
