Zusatztext "This is a very good attempt to link neurobiology to what is known from other less biologically oriented disciplines such as cognitive psychology and applied linguistics about second language acquisition. This is a good book for those who are interested in making the leap between typically disparate fields (neurobiology and applied linguistics) in their quest for knowledge and explanatory power in the field of second language learning."-DOODY'S Notes"This volume takes the difficult but important step of trying to relate current knowledge in the fields of neuroscience and SLA! and its authors should be commended for this. This volume represents an important step in that direction."-Studies in Second Language Acquisition Informationen zum Autor Schumann, John H.; Crowell, Sheila E.; Jones, Nancy E.; Lee, Namhee; Schuchert, Sara Ann Klappentext This work is a neurobiological account of certain aspects of second language acquisition. It represents the collaborative efforts of members of the Neurobiology of Language Research Group in the Applied Linguistics and TESL Department at UCLA. Zusammenfassung The aim of the book is to demonstrate that language is not a unique cognitive ability that requires specialized neuromechanisms. It seeks to cover areas that support aspects of learning language and speculates how language might be learned. Inhaltsverzeichnis Contents: Foreword. Preface. J.H. Schumann, Introduction. J.H.
