This new edition of Child Language Acquisition and Development presents the latest thinking and research on how children acquire their first language. The author provides a balanced presentation of evidence from both sides of the nature-nurture debate, encouraging readers to adopt a critical stance throughout.
The book assumes no background knowledge of linguistic theory and introduces specialist terms in clear, non-technical language. This makes it accessible to anyone interested in understanding how children develop their language skills.
With its focus on current research and key debates in the field, this practical text is ideal for those looking to engage with the latest ideas and arguments in child language acquisition.
