NINE NASTY WORDS: English in the Gutter--Then, Now, and Forever
A boisterous examination of profanity, explored from every angle: historical, sociological, political, and linguistic. McWhorter examines the realms of language that are considered shocking and taboo in order to understand what imbues curse words with such power--and why we love them so much.
