This book reads like a journey, navigating meanings and sources from many different social and cultural contexts. As well as the fundamental need to classify and name in order to make sense of our world, we all engage in wordplay to actively create and enrich the language. Great anecdotes, charming pictures. - Dr Jane Jones at Kings College ""This book reads like a journey, navigating meanings and sources from many different social and cultural contexts.
