So far it seems like the author is taking a noticeably different approach at presenting and discussing the history of the language(s) of each individual chapter. One example:
- In the case of Greek, he uses a concise but still long (relative to the rest of the narrative) socio-psychological study of the people speaking it
- For Sumerian and the Semitic languages, this kind of content is barely if at all present.
