In an engaging, yet easily understandable format, it examines children’s language acquisition as well as methods of language acquisition used by adults. It focuses on speech production and processing, and last but not least on the complicated questions concerning the biological foundation of languages. The information presented in the book is based on the latest research findings and complemented by numerous examples from various languages. This book is suitable for use both as an introduction to the topic, but also as a clear summary of the current state of knowledge for those who are already familiar with psycholinguistics.
