Abstract:

This volume provides a state-of-the-art treatment of research on language
attrition, the non-pathological loss of a language through lack of
exposure. It combines a review of past and present research with in-depth
treatments of specific theoretical and methodological issues and reports
on
individual studies. Special prominence is given to the identification of
problematic areas in attrition research, with a view to pointing out
possible solutions. The book specifically addresses itself to those who
wish to acquaint themselves with the research area of language attrition,
providing them with both a thorough overview of the field and a basis on
which to build their own research. The combination of experience and an
innovative outlook present in this collection, however, make it a
valuable
source for those familiar with attrition as well. Especially useful to
both
beginners and veterans is the extensive annotated bibliography.
