This book is intended for laypeople, not for those with a background in linguistics. If you don't have any linguistic training, you'll probably find this an amusing read. If you are educated in linguistics, you might be too distracted by Bryson's few but glaring errors to thoroughly enjoy the book. Additionally, since the book was published in 1990, some of its information is out of date.
