Abstract:

This book examines the evidence relative to the idea that there is an age
factor in first and second language acquisition, evidence that has sources
ranging from studies of feral children to evaluations of language programmes
in primary schools. It goes on to explore the various explanations that have
been advanced to account for such evidence. Finally, it looks at the
educational ramifications of the age question, with particular regard to formal
second language teaching in the early school years and in 'third age'
contexts.
