Through a collection of engaging insights and research, Speed, O'Meara, San Roque, and Majid delve into how language influences thought and how figurative comparisons unveil complex concepts.

It's a warm and thought-provoking examination that encourages readers to reflect on the metaphors that color their everyday conversations and influence their perceptions of the world. Whether a casual fan of language or a scholarly enthusiast, there's something here to pique everyone's curiosity.
