Talk:The Language Instinct
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
One went so far as to describe Pinker as the only linguist he knew who was able to write readable prose.
- I'd second that.
Whew, just spent considerable time expanding on the stub. I admire Pinker's writing style, and the book's implications really are sweeping. It's important to put the work in the context of evolutionary psychology / sociobiology to understand what he and other authors are really getting at. --Kris Schnee 10:11, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

If this is a genuine quotation, a reference should be cited. Otherwise it should be deleted.
