Publisher's Synopsis

Cancer researcher Sloane (U. of California-Berkeley) has travelled extensively and visited southeastern Asia many times. He analyzes the morphology, history, etymology, and social context of a play language derived from the Jakartan dialect of Indonesian that young people use to conceal speech from outsiders.
