<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"An edited collection of prominent scholars in the field of language acquisition and development, focusing primarily on syntax and morphosyntax from formalist generative perspective"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Explorations of language development in different types of learner populations and across various languages.</b> <p/>This volume examines language development in different types of learner populations and across various languages. The contributors analyze experimental studies of child and adult language acquisition, heritage language development, bilingualism, and language disorders. They consider theoretical and methodological issues; language development in children, discussing topics that range from gestures to errors in person and number agreement; and development and attrition of (morpho)syntactic constructions in second language learners, bilinguals, and Alzheimer's patients. <p/> The approach is crosslinguistic in three senses of the word: the contributors offer analyses of acquisition phenomena in different languages; they consider crosslinguistic influence, or the potential effects of multiple languages on one another in the mind of the same speaker; and (in a novel use of the term, proposed by the editors) the chapters bring together theoretical and methodological approaches pertinent to the linguistics of language development in children, adults, and heritage speakers.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Gita Martohardjono is Associate Professor of Linguistics at Queens College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. Suzanne Flynn is Professor of Linguistics in the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy at MIT.
