"The seventh edition of The Development of Language, written and contributed by leading researchers, covers language acquisition and development from infancy through adulthood." "This authoritative text is ideal for courses that take a developmental approach to language acquisition across the full life span. The text thoroughly explores syntax, morphology, semantics, phonology, and pragmatics. It examines atypical development with attention to the most common disorders affecting language acquisition, presents strong coverage of individual differences in language acquisition and learning, describes how and why they occur, and provides contemporary references and the most recent research findings. The panel of expert authors provides students with cutting-edge, up-to-date research knowledge in an interesting and highly readable format."--book jacket.
