For college students in courses with the same topic in
communication disorders, psychology, and education. A best-selling,
comprehensive, easy-to-understand introduction to language
development. This best-selling introduction to language development
text offers a cohesive, easy-to-understand overview of all aspects
of the subject, from syntax, morphology, and semantics, to
phonology and pragmatics. Each idea and concept is explained in a
way that is clear to even beginning students and then reinforced
with outstanding pedagogical aids such as discussion questions,
chapter objectives, reflections, and main point boxed features. The
book looks at how children learn to communicate in general and in
English specifically, while emphasising individual patterns of
communication development. The 9th Edition continues the
distribution of bilingual and dialectal development throughout the
text; expands the discussion of children from lower-SES families,
including those living in homeless shelters; makes substantial
improvements in the organisation and clarity of Chapter 4 on
cognition and its relationship to speech and language; consolidates
information on Theory of Mind in one chapter; improves readability
throughout with more thorough explanations, simplification of
terms, and increased use of headings and bullets; weeds out
redundancies and asides to help streamline the reading; provides
more child language examples throughout; and thoroughly updates the
research, including the addition of several hundred new references.
