Description:
in this book Patrick de Gramont draws upon evidence from infant observation and linguistics as well as from information theory in order to make two related points. First, he demonstrates how our prevailing theories of meaning (psychoanalysis and Piaget's cognitive psychology) have failed to account for how we distort meaning. Second, he shows how language plays an essential role in this distortion of meaning.
