Presents the story of the 'Great Re-labelling' of American language and thought. This book is suitable for anyone who's concerned that what they say might not be what they think, whoever they, or we, are.
"Reading these shrewd, engaging, playful mini-essays makes you wonder why Nunberg has no British counterpart" - The Guardian"
