John Benjamins Publishing is pleased to present a new work in
Second Language Acquisition:

Input and Evidence
The raw material of second language acquisition
Susanne E. CARROLL

US & Canada: 1 58811 011 7 / USD 86.00 (Hardcover)
Rest of world: 90 272 2493 5 / NLG 190.00 / EUR 86.22 (Hardcover)

Input and Evidence: the raw material of second language acquisition is
an empirical and theoretical treatment of one of the essential
components of SLA: the input to language learning mechanisms. It
reviews and adds to the empirical studies showing that negative
evidence (correction, feedback, repetitions, reformulations) play a
role in language acquisition in addition to that played by ordinary
conversation. At the same time, it embeds discussion of input within a
framework which includes a serious treatment of language processing,
including the problem of modularity and the question of how semantic
representations can influence grammatical ones. It lays the foundation
for the development of a truly explanatory theory of SLA in the form
of the Autonomous Induction Theory which combines a model of induction
with an interpretation of Universal Grammar, thereby permitting, for
the the first time, a coherent approach to the problem of constraining
induction in SLA.
