Synopsis of The Alphabet

Descubre la fascinante historia detrás de cada letra del alfabeto con 'The Alphabet' de David Sacks.

A través de un análisis lingüístico y cultural, Sacks desentraña los misterios de las 26 letras que componen el alfabeto inglés y examina la historia de los alfabetos en todo el mundo, así como los ideogramas chinos y japoneses. Con ilustraciones gráficas, mapas y gráficos, este libro ofrece una perspectiva entretenida e informativa sobre la forma en que hablamos, escribimos y pensamos.
