"Libraries that own the first edition of this volume will want to
replace it with this updated version, which provides a detailed,
comprehensive overview for those beginning to study second-language
acquisition. Recommended."--Choice
Review for a previous edition: "SLA theories are presented by
Mitchell and Myles in a clear and engaging style. ... A great
advantage of this text over others is that it reviews both
connectionism and sociocultural theory, two newcomers in the field
of SLA which are no doubt bound to figure very prominently in the
future."--Second Language Research
