Vanishing Voices: The Extinction of the World's Languages Hardcover - 2000
by Daniel Nettle; Suzanne Romaine; Suzanne Romaine (Joint Author)
Warning that at least half of the world's languages may die out in the next century, the authors assert that such extinction is part of the larger picture of near-total collapse of the worldwide ecosystem. Defending the world's endangered languages, the authors pay homage to the last speakers of dying tongues. 25 halftones. 14 line illustrations.
