Description
Second Language Learning Theories provides a comprehensive introduction to the main theories of second language acquisition from multiple perspectives. Written by leading experts in different specialisms, this fourth edition offers a clear and concise overview of the latest developments in SLA research.
The book covers all major theoretical perspectives currently active in SLA, examining each theory's claims and scope, as well as its views on language, learners, and the acquisition process. Key studies and data examples from various languages are also discussed, along with summaries of recent findings.
With updated accounts of cognitive approaches to L2 learning, advances in generative linguistics, and the "social turn" in L2 research, this edition provides a thorough understanding of the current state of SLA theory. It remains an essential resource for graduate students in second language acquisition.
