Abstract:

This book proposes a detailed picture of the continuities and ruptures between
communication in primates and language in humans. It explores a diversity of
perspectives on the origins of language, including a fine description of vocal
communication in animals, mainly in monkeys and apes, but also in birds, the
study of vocal tract anatomy and cortical control of the vocal productions in
monkeys and apes, the description of combinatory structures and their social
and communicative value, and the exploration of the cognitive environment in
which language may have emerged from nonhuman primate vocal or gestural
communication.
