This book reviews the various lines of empirical inquiry which arose in America in response to this hypothesis, and proposes a new approach to future empirical research.

''Language diversity and thought'' examines the Sapir-Whorf linguistic relativity hypothesis: the proposal that the grammar of the particular language we speak affects the way we think about reality.
