The Use and Misuse of Language. So far I’m reading about General Semantics created by this guy Alfred Korbyski. Don’t understand it all but I love studying anything to do with language. The book compares the structure of language to math.
Published in 1962
I read, in the past, a book about the origin of the Irish language, Gaelic. It was fascinating. It said the language originated in southern Russia and evolved as people migrated across Europe.
Anyway, I don’t have the concentration or memory that I used to, but I find those things interesting too. Enjoy your book! 
Thanks. I’m having a hard time concentrating on it.
