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. 650 0 $a Language and languages $x Origin. 650 0 $a Animal communication. 650 0 $a Primates. 650 7 $a Animal communication. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00809125 650 7 $a Language and languages $x Origin. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00992183 650 7 $a Primates. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01076374 700 1 $a BoeÌ, Louis-Jean $e editor. 700 1 $a Fagot, JoeÌl, $d 1960- $e editor. 700 1 $a Perrier, Pascal $e editor. 700 1 $a Schwartz, Jean-Luc $e editor. 830 0 $a Speech production and perception ; $v v. 4. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210021355.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7DA66D38840911E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
