Synopsis
Language teaching has tended to base itself on the ideas of what to teach rather than on how to learn. This book presents the vast body of second language research, developed in the last decade, in an integrated form aimed primarily at the language teacher. The book should prove of interest to language teachers and student language teachers worldwide, but especially to those doing TEFL, TESOL and applied linguistic courses.

Review
This much needed book will be an excellent text for courses in Language Acquisition within second language teacher education programs. There is a wealth of new knowledge, new vocabulary, and new perspectives which not only contribute to specialized aspects of teacher training but will enrich students' general education as well
Patsy Lightbrown, Professor of Applied Linguistics
Vivian Cook aims to provide a book which is not too academic, and which is relevant to the classroom teacher; he has succeeded admirably. And although intended for teachers, this book should also prove interesting to anyone who has ever themselves attempted to learn a foreign language.
Language International
...a very valuable text for foreign language teachers and those in training and should feature...on reading lists of initial teacher education courses.
