Summary

"Language Shapes Thought" explores the intricate connection between language and our cognitive processes, examining how linguistic structures influence our perception of reality and shape cultural norms. It investigates the age-old question of whether the language we speak affects how we think, delving into the nuances of linguistic relativity and its implications for cognitive frameworks.

 
One intriguing insight is how different languages impact spatial reasoning and time perception, demonstrating that our native tongue may subtly alter our understanding of the world. The book progresses from foundational theories to specific linguistic features, such as grammatical gender and tense systems, analyzing their cognitive impact.

 
It highlights empirical studies, cross-linguistic comparisons, and neuroimaging research to support its arguments. The book uniquely emphasizes the practical applications of linguistic relativity, bridging the gap between theoretical research and real-world scenarios. This approach makes the book valuable for educators and policymakers, offering insights into improving language education and cross-cultural communication strategies.

New York's World War II Aircraft

Cory P. Graff, P.J. Muller

New York State was a center of industry during World War II. New York aviation companies designed many of the greatest combat aircraft of the era, and bustling armies of women and men helped quickly churn them out by the thousands. More than one fourth of all US warplanes came from New York drawing boards during the war. These planes saw combat service everywhere, holding the line in the deserts of North Africa and flying from aircraft carriers plying the vast Pacific Ocean. Others operated over the frozen tundra of Alaska and Siberia. New York aircraft flew tons of fuel, ammunition, and supplies over the treacherous Himalayan Mountains into China, relentlessly hounded enemy submarines and ships, and battered Axis strongholds all the way to victory.
