This book provides an introduction to language development that differs from existing texts in that it traces language and cognitive development (together with the associated debates) from babyhood, through the school years of middle childhood and adolescence, into adulthood and the world of work. Because the world trend is towards learning to speak, read and write more than one language, this comprehensive book includes descriptions and discussions of learning more than one language sequentially and simultaneously.
