The Handbook of Second Language Acquisition presents an
integrated discussion of key, and sometimes controversial, issues
in second language acquisition research.
* * Discusses the biological and cognitive underpinnings of SLA,
mechanisms, processes, and constraints on SLA, the level of
ultimate attainment, research methods, and the status of SLA as a
cognitive science.
* Includes contributions from twenty-seven of the world’s leading
scholars.
* Provides an invaluable resource for all students and scholars
of human cognition, including those in linguistics, psychology,
applied linguistics, ESL, foreign languages, and cognitive
science.
