Language Experience and Early Language Development - From Input to Uptake (Paperback)

This book is about one of the most fundamental debates in language development, namely the relationship between children's language development and their language experience. This issue is not only of theoretical interest; understanding how a child's language development is giving cause for concern. If there are no environmental influences on early development then little can be done to help the child whose first steps into language are faltering. But, if the speed with which children develop language is subject to some external influence, then there are likely to be opportunities for successful intervention and grounds for optimism rather than pessimism in this area. This book argues that there are grounds for optimism.
