“A man will turn over half a library to make one book.” –Samuel Johnson
Synopsis
How is it that we can all open our mouths and speak, often at considerable length, without consciously thinking about the construction of the sentences we are using? And how is it that four-year-old children can apparently do the same thing? This book describes the theories that have been most influential during the twentieth century, namely, those of Skinner, Piaget, Halliday, Chomsky and Karmiloff-Smith, as well as a great deal of research that has been done by many linguists and psychologists. This book is aimed at first or second-year university courses, but should appeal to anyone who is interested in how children develop language.
