Recenzii
This book is very well-written and edited, and its various Chapters provide not only enlightening results and interpretations but also clear and satisfying discussions of the relevant theories, past empirical findings, and research methodology.Scott Jarvis, Ohio University, in Studies in Second Language Acquisition 31 - 2009It is fascinating to read a collection of studies conducted over such a long period with a single, large data set.D. Bradford MarshallThe collection provides invaluable guidance for educators and policy makers who must decide when to start l 2 instruction in school programs. The volume also includes thorough reviews of previous research and theory on the relationship between age and language acquisition. It is a unique addition to the research on classroom second language learning.Patsy M. Lightbown, Distinguished Professor Emeritus, Concordia University, Montreal.Apart from exploring questions of rate and attainment in low-proficiency learners, this volume also presents data and findings relevant to SLA in terms of methodology, interlanguage states or learners' perception of their own development. For this reason, it will be helpful not only for professionals in linguistics and FL curriculum planners, but also for researchers and language teachers interested in the description and measurement of the early stages of FL acquisition.Imma Miralpeix, University of Barcelona, The Journal od Language Teaching, Volume 44/1, 2011
