Cover of Diane Larsen-Freeman & Michael H. Long: An Introduction to Second Language Acquisition Research (PDF)

Second languages are vitally important to diverse groups of people, ranging from refugees to college students facing foreign language requirements. This book provides a synthesis of empirical findings on second and foreign language learning by children and adults, emphasising the design and execution of appropriate research.
