Summary:"The author treats of language. His design is to exhibit the various methods by which ideas are imparted to the mind, both from inanimate and animated nature. He thus discusses the whole subject of natural and artificial language, ascending through every gradation, from the simple dialect of the vegetable kingdom, to the complicated mechanism, and manifold utterances of human speech. The field which he explores, is one equally extended and attractive, and in directing into it the steps of youth, and leading the way, he has rendered to them an invaluable service"--Preface.
