Description

Following the Tower of Babel story, language historians have long searched for a possible original language from which all others developed. Dr Wadler, inspired by his study of Rudolf Steiner's ideas, spent thirty years researching different languages and the connections between them; this book was the remarkable result. Wadler argues that pre-Columbia America holds the key to understanding the origin of human language and culture.

This book is a classic of spiritual scientific literature.

Reviews

'The book is one which cannot fail to be of the greatest use and interest to all whose concern is with the word as a means of approach to the spiritual world and to the history of the human being.'
-- Owen Barfield
