ABOUT THE BOOK:-
Dealing with how children develop language, this text begins with the perception and production of speech sounds in infancy and moves through the development of vocabulary, grammar, and communicative competence. Also included are chapters on language development after early childhood, language in special populations, second language learning and bilingual development, the biological bases of language (which covers such topics as evolution, chimps, and aphasia). Written by an author who has a background in both speech pathology and psychology, the text uses theory to motivate and explain the research and to put the research findings in perspective. It is up-to-date, not only in the data and studies cited, but also in the range of theoretical perspectives that are included.ISBN - 9780534202927
