Abstract:

In our increasingly multilingual modern world, understanding how
languages beyond the first are acquired and processed at a brain level
is essential to design evidence-based teaching, clinical interventions
and language policy. Written by a team of world-leading experts in a
wide range of disciplines within cognitive science, this Handbook
provides a comprehensive overview of the study of third (and more)
language acquisition and processing. It features 30 approachable
chapters covering topics such as multilingual language acquisition,
education, language maintenance and language loss, multilingual
code-switching, ageing in the multilingual brain, and many more. Each
chapter provides an accessible overview of the state of the art in its
topic, while offering comprehensive access to the specialized
literature, through carefully curated citations. It also serves as a
methodological resource for researchers in the field, offering
chapters on methods such as case studies, corpora, artificial language
systems or statistical modelling of multilingual data.

Written In: English (eng)
