    Incidentally it was his preliminary book "What is Linguistics" that introduced me to this emergening discipline here in Pakistan then in 1988.....it simply fascinated me and ever since I have tried to understand and know more about this linguistics science. I have been watching your videos off and on on Linguistics and its Branches. I however couldn't go beyond basics....

    I would say he is not more famous or influential than Lakoff or Everett and, let's be real, nowhere near Chomsky.

    How many students all over the world have got a Crystal book, how many one by Chomsky and how many have even heard about Everett? Just judge yourselves about popularity ...

    The Virtual Linguistics Campus Nearly everyone (in linguistics) has a Chomsky grammar book and Everett pushes Sapir Whorf and denies recursion one of the MOST important linguistics' topic of concern--in linguistics popularity doesn't equal impact. I hope you do know Everett's work (probably in the top three Field Linguists).

    Christophe Clugston Everetts studies about the Piraha constitute a prominent part in our typology classes (Piraha is also part of the VLC language index). But when we introduce this topic to our students they hear Everett's name for the first time. For sure, he is nowhere near Crystal as far as popularity is concerned. Just ask a thousand linguistics students ...

    On a side note, I talk to Dan Everett several times a week. His impact is greater than Crystal's (and you neglected Lakoff and Chomsky all together). The argumentum ad populum is false--as McDonald's must be the best restaurant in the World following that specious reasoning.

    Christophe Clugston Again, I never referred to the impact of any of them, I used the term "popularity", and as far the impact is concerned I could have mentioned several more.
