Providing a comprehensive survey of cutting-edge work on second language learning

This Handbook, written by a team of leading experts, surveys the nature of second language learning and its implications for teaching.

Prominent theories and methods from linguistics, psycholinguistics, processing-based, and cognitive approaches are covered and organised thematically across sections dealing with skill development, individual differences, pedagogical interventions and approaches, and context and environment.

This state-of-the-art volume will interest researchers in second language studies and language education, and will also reach out to advanced undergraduate and graduate students in these and other related areas.
