This handbook provides a comprehensive and up-to-date survey of a
wide range of developmental and clinical issues in pragmatics.
Principally, the contributions to this volume deal with pragmatic
competence in a native language, in a second or foreign language,
and in a selection of language disorders. The topics which are
covered explore questions of production and comprehension on the
utterance and discourse level. Topics addressed concern the
acquisition and learning, teaching and testing, assessment and
treatment of various aspects of pragmatic ability, knowledge and
use. These include, for example, the acquisition and development of
speech acts, implicatures, irony, story-telling and interactional
competence. Phenomena such as pragmatic awareness and pragmatic
transfer are also addressed. The disorders considered include
clinical conditions pertaining to children and to adults.
Specifically, these are, among others, autism spectrum disorders,
Down syndrome, and Alzheimer's disease.
