Quick Look
Classic study on the origin of human language, tracing it back to pre-Columbian America.
Description
Following the Tower of Babel story, language historians have long searched for a possible original language from which all others developed. Dr Wadler, inspired by his study of Rudolf Steiner's ideas, spent thirty years researching different languages and the connections between them; this book was the remarkable result. Wadler argues that pre-Columbia America holds the key to understanding the origin of human language and culture.
This book is a classic of spiritual scientific literature.
