Even though more than half the world's population is bilingual, the
study of bilinguals has lagged behind that of monolinguals. With
this book, which draws on twenty-five years of the author's
research, Francois Grosjean contributes significantly to redressing
the balance. The volume covers four areas of research: the
definition and characterization of the bilingual person, the
perception and production of spoken language by bilinguals, the
sign-oral bilingualism of the Deaf, and methodological and
conceptual issues in research on bilingualism. While the author
takes a largely psycholinguistic approach, his acute linguistic and
sociolinguistic awareness is evident throughout and especially so
in his reflections on what it means to be bilingual and bicultural.
The book also defends increased co-operation among researchers in
connecting fields such as the language sciences and the
neurosciences.
