The Bilingualism Reader;2 by Li Wei instant download

From reviews of the first edition:
‘A volume that would serve well as a textbook in an introductory course on bilingualism and will also prove extremely valuable to students and researchers alike.’
Language
‘This book is clearly a bargain, and it is difficult to see how it could fail to become a core textbook for courses in bilingualism.’
System
‘The bringing together of different fields of specialisation is enriching, yet it also brings home to the reader the great diversity of interests, opinions and agendas that exist . . . an excellent compilation and an invaluable companion.’
Language Awareness
‘This outstanding collection of the key articles in the field is an essential guide for incoming students and a wonderful resource for bilingualism scholars.’
Annotated Bibliography of English Studies
The Bilingualism Reader is the definitive reader for the study of bilingualism. Designed as an integrated and structured student resource it provides invaluable editorial material that guides the reader through different sections and covers:
• definitions and typology of bilingualism • language choice and bilingual interaction • bilingualism, identity and ideology • grammar of code-switching and bilingual acquisition • bilingual production and perception • the bilingual brain • methodological issues in the study of bilingualism.
The second edition of this best-selling volume includes nine new readings and postscripts written by the authors of the original articles, which evaluate them in the light of recent research. Critical discussion of research methods, revised graded study questions and activities, a comprehensive glossary, and an up-to-date resource list make The Bilingualism Reader an essential introductory text for students of linguistics, psychology and education.
