Summary:"Presenting a model of a multimodal language faculty which heralds a re-organization of the structures of language and their guiding assumptions, this book shows that although the primary human expressive behaviors - speaking, signing, drawing - may seem distinct, they actually decompose into similar cognitive building blocks, which coalesce into a multifaceted multimodal communicative system"-- Provided by publisher
