- Synopsis
- Saxton (education, U. of London) presents a textbook for a graduate or undergraduate course primarily for students of psychology who are interested in child language. There being no reason whatsoever for psychology major to have had any training in linguistic theory, he assumes nothing, and explains even such terms as verb and noun. He covers landmarks in the landscape of child language, whether animals can acquire human language, the critical-period hypothesis, input and interaction, language in the first year, the developing lexicon, the acquisition of morphology, linguistic nativism, the usage-based approach, and nature and nurture.
