Synopsis

Made up of a series of reviews of various aspects of the topic, this book sets out the crucial issues in the field of language acquisition. The book opens with Richard Cromer's now classic statement of the cognition hypothesis of language acquisition. There follows a reassessment of this hypothesis in the light of later findings which calls for major modifications to the original theory. Richard Cromer then explores the strategies children use in acquiring language, and suggests reconceptualizations of language acquisition and cognitive development more generally. The final part of the book examines recent research into language handicap. This book should be of use to students and specialists in developmental and cognitive psychology, students and specialists in child language and speech therapists.
