Max Muller and the Science of Language: A Criticism is a book written by William Dwight Whitney in 1892. The book is a critical analysis of the work of Max Muller, a prominent linguist of the 19th century. Whitney argues that Muller's approach to the study of language is flawed and that his theories are based on faulty assumptions. Whitney also takes issue with Muller's emphasis on the historical and comparative aspects of language, arguing that this approach neglects the importance of the individual languages themselves. The book is an important contribution to the field of linguistics and continues to be studied today as a critique of Muller's work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
