<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><FONT face=Arial size=2>“In
preparing this book, Genesee, Paradis, and Crago have struck a rare balance.
They review scientific evidence, yet present case studies of fictional children;
they declare their professional biases, yet are quick to point out instances in
which a direction opposite their view is most appropriate. As a result of
reading this work, an educator will be able to argue the evidence for different
models of schooling, and policy makers will be able to address big questions
such as whether bilingual programs can enable children to learn a second
language as quickly as programs conducted exclusively in the second language.
>From the pages of this book, speech-language pathologists will have a means of
determining whether a child’s grammatical profile reflects some universal
feature of language impairment or simply a pattern that is characteristic of the
specific language being acquired. And, crucially, parents will have a clearer
understanding of the factors to consider when deciding if they should use more
than one language with their child in the home or enroll their child in a school
where another language is spoken.”--Laurence B. Leonard</FONT></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><FONT face=Arial size=2>This
comprehensive, up-to-date resource on bilingual and second language acquisition
dispels many myths about dual language development, helps professionals
determine whether typical language development or a disorder is present, and
answers key questions that might arise when working with children and parents.
The authors offer in-depth explorations of the complex processes of bilingual
and second language acquisition, the question of whether dual language learning
affects cognitive development, the often misunderstood<B> </B>concept of
code-mixing, and the issues surrounding effective diagnosis of disorders and
intervention. A valuable reference for in-practice SLPs and educators and an
ideal textbook for graduate students. </FONT></P>
