The Origins of Vowel Systems. Studies in Teh Evolution of Language

by Bart de Boer

This book addresses tendencies of human vowel systems from the point of view of self-organization. It uses computer models to show that tendencies of human languages can be reproduced by artificial agents. DeBoer then explores the implications of those results for the evolution of language.
