(2022/12/27) ゆっくりとではありますが、この本の日本語訳を作っています。サンプルはここをクリック。自分がこの本を訳す能力があるかは不確かなうえ、英語で約24万語にもなる大著であるので、いつ終わるのかも不明ですが、著者の1人が恩師であるので、頑張ります。I am working on a Japanese translation of this book. It is a large book with about 240,000 words in English. I am not sure when it will be completed, but I will let you know in this webpage.

I have been reading this bulky academic book (656 pages long) for these six months, part of which I directly learned from one of the authors (John A. Goldsmith) at the University of Chicago. It is a study in "rupture" and "continuity" in the fields of mind sciences. This volume starts with linguistics, philosophy/logic, and psychology in the Nineteenth Century [Chs 2, 3, and 4] and takes the reader to Psychology (1900-1940) [Ch 5], American Linguistics (1900-1940) [Ch 6], Philosophy (1900-1940) [Ch 7], Logic (1900-1940) [Ch 8], and European Structuralism (1920-1940) [Ch 9]. It's not easy to read (I am still in the middle of Chapter 4), but their view, the only way to understand the present is to understand where it comes from, I cannot agree with more. For your information, you can see John himself talking about this book by clicking here (arigatoo gozaimasu, John! I am looking forward to volume two). To place an order, you can click here.
