Description of Why Chimpanzees Can't Learn Language and Only Humans Can
Herbert S. Terrace revisits his 1970s experiment to teach a chimpanzee language, Project Nim, to offer a novel view of the origins of human language. In contrast to both Noam Chomsky and his critics, Terrace contends that words, as much as grammar, are the cornerstones of language.
