For months now I have been slowly reading Stephen Pinker's THE STUFF OF THOUGHTS. A thick book exploring how our mind works by exploring how we use language.
I read a few pages and then have to stop and think about what I have read. What does this all mean. I want to copy pages out of the book to send to friends because it is so exciting. I want to talk about it but I can't find the words to express my thoughts.
But I am not giving up even thought I am only on page 192 (out of 470 pages).
Maybe I could understand it better if I read it all at one time, I could see the connections rather then the wonderful little observations about how we use language.
I just don't know.
