Reading in a Second Language offers a comprehensive survey of the
phenomenon and process of reading in a second language, with
graduate and upper-level undergraduate students in second language
acquisition, psycholinguistics, and applied psychology as its
primary audience. The book explores reading processes from a number
of complementary standpoints, integrating perspectives from fields
such as first and second language reading, second language
acquisition, linguistics, psycholinguistics, and cognitive
neuroscience. The first half examines major factors in second
language reading: types of scripts, the cognitive and neural
substrates of reading; metalinguistic awareness, word recognition,
language transfer, and lexical knowledge. The second part of the
book discusses the social and educational contexts in which reading
development occurs, including issues related to pedagogy, the use
of technology in the classroom, reading disorders, and policy
making. Reading in a Second Language provides students with a full,
logically organized overview of the primary factors that shape
reading development and processes in a second language.
