Summary, etc.:
There’s no shortage of books about public speaking or language or song. But until now, there has been no book about the miracle that underlies them all, the human voice itself. Beginning with the novel, and compelling, argument that the ability to speak is what made humans the planet’s dominant species, John Colapinto guides listeners from the voice’s beginnings in lungfish millions of years ago to its culmination in the talent of Pavoratti, Martin Luther King Jr., and Beyonce.
