Cognitive linguistics is a relatively new theory of language that challenges many of the basic assumptions of traditional approaches. Drawing on his long-standing interest in the relationship between language and perspective, Lee here sets out to make the theory accessible to readers who have no prior training in the discipline.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Mission: Needless,
This review is from: Cognitive Linguistics: An Introduction (Paperback)
Very concise and detailed overviews about cognitive linguistics. But we can obtain many other books that contain the outline of cognitive linguistics, so we don't need to dare to buy this book. Whether or not cognitive linguistics is a magnificient field of study, there are too many books that outlook it. We should explore more profound study of cognitive linguistics, I guess.
