This New York Times bestseller by the author of Better Angels of Our Nature, The Sense of Style, and Enlightenment Now is an intriguing and courageous exploration of language.

“Inquisitive, imaginative, brave, and mischievous.”
-New York Times Book Review

Steven Pinker, best-selling author, combines a rare mix of scientific competence and linguistic elegance, allowing him to deliver straightforward explanations of profound and strong concepts. His prior publications, notably the Pulitzer Prize winner The Blank Slate, thrust him to the forefront of today’s popular scientific authors. Pinker’s The Stuff of Thought is an interesting study at how our words describe our character. The Stuff of Thought, which analyzes scientific topics with examples from daily life, is a superbly designed and immensely readable novel that will appeal to readers of everything from The Selfish Gene and Blink to Eats, Shoots, and Leaves.
