Description
Understanding reading abilities and their development is fundamental for language comprehension and human cognition. This second edition of Reading in a Second Language draws on research from multiple disciplines to explain reading abilities in both languages, providing a persuasive research foundation for understanding how reading works. New chapters have been added on the neurocognition of reading, reading-writing relationships, and digital reading, reflecting advances in the field since the first edition was published. The book also presents updated research studies across all its chapters, offering practical insights into how reading can be taught effectively. It is a valuable resource for academic researchers and students in Applied Linguistics and TESOL.
