商品簡介
Communication researchers, speech therapists, and educators from around the world investigate the effects of language specificity on phonological acquisition and disorder. The 17 contributions describe empirical studies of children learning languages that are typologically very different. Both monolingual and bilingual contexts are studied, in both typical and atypical development. The data are presented so that they can be used by speech and language pathologists in their work with children. Hua teaches at the U. of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, and Dodd is a researcher at the U. of Queensland, Australia. Annotation c2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
