Description
This book covers approaches to second language research that in some way conform to the agenda of linguistics. It presents the actual methodology and results of research rather than just the conclusions or interpretations. It covers the main current theories, research methods and techniques, and it considers the crucial problems involved in relating Second Language Acquisition to linguistics.
