The December 10, 2005, issue of Science News (<sciencenews.org>) features an article "Wild Talk: Grammar Surprise in the Jungle" (no kidding!) about Dan Everett and the stir created by his recently published paper on Piraha~ in Current Anthropology (CA Aug-Oct 2005 vol. 46,4). The CA article, the text of which can be downloaded via ProQuest, is followed by comments from a number of well-known anthropologists and linguists.
