Based on the premise that a systematic approach to vocabulary development results in better learning, this new research-based text takes an intensive look at the underlying principles of vocabulary acquisition including the most effective teaching and learning techniques currently available. The author draws heavily on the vast research, experimentation, and classroom experience of teachers and researchers over the last 100 years and provides relevant applications to the listening, speaking, reading, and writing skill areas.
