Made with Words: Hobbes on Language, Mind, and Politics
Philip Pettit
Hobbes' extreme political views have commanded so much attention that they have eclipsed his work on language and mind, and on reasoning, personhood, and group formation. This book argues that it was Hobbes who invented the invention of language thesis - the idea that language is a cultural innovation that transformed the human mind.
