The Language of Man. Book 4.
Littell, Joseph Fletcher, Ed.
Book 4 of "The Language of Man" series contains articles which deal with semantics, levels of language (including informal, formal and technical language, jargon, and gobbledygook), the hidden persuaders (advertising of merchandise and political candidates), and communications of the future (including the computer and other mass media now being developed). Each segment is augmented by humorous features, examples from real life, and graphics. The style is informal; the book is intended for high school students. (JK)
