For centuries, sticklers the world over have donned the cloak of authority to control the way people use words. Robert Lane Greene's ground-breaking and controversial book strikes back to defend the fascinating, real-life diversity of this most basic human faculty. From the Tower of Babel onward, Greene shows how language "experts" went from myth-making to rule-making and from building cohesive communities to building modern nations.
