Description

Linguistics: An Introduction by Andrew Radford, Martin Atkinson, David Britain, Harald Clahsen and Andrew Spencer is a comprehensive textbook that offers a unified approach to language from various perspectives. The second edition builds upon the success of its predecessor, providing clear explanations and a structured format to help students understand the subject. The book is divided into three main sections: sounds, words, and sentences, each introducing foundational concepts with practical applications in fields such as child language acquisition, psycholinguistics, language disorders, and sociolinguistics. This edition includes new material on sentence use, including pragmatics and conversational analysis, as well as updated exercise materials and further reading. Suitable for students seeking a clear and structured introduction to linguistics, this textbook provides a wealth of information and resources to support their studies.
