The chapters in this volume provide the first comprehensive overview
of trends in research on early phonological, lexical, syntactic and
pragmatic development in children acquiring two (or more) languages
simultaneously. Ongoing as well as emerging issues are examined and
discussed by leading researchers in the field. Collectively, these
studies extend our knowledge of bilingual acquisition and broaden our
understanding of the child's ability to acquire and use language. This
volume is of interest to researchers working on language acquisition
by monolingual and bilingual children, graduate students of
psychology, linguistics and communication sciences, and researchers
and professionals concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of
bilingual children with language impairment.
