Book Synopsis Imprisoned in English by : Anna Wierzbicka
Book excerpt: Imprisoned in English argues that in the present English-dominated world, social sciences and the humanities are locked in a conceptual framework grounded in English and that scholars need to break away from this framework to reach a more universal, culture-independent perspective on things human.
