First published in 1986, Language Processing in Children and Adults provides a broad perspective on psychological research into language processing. The book has two main sections. The first deals with language processing in children and describes the processes involved in learning to produce and understand spoken language and the processes involved in learning to read. This section also includes a chapter on development disorders of spoken and written language. The second section deals with adult language processing and has chapters on single word perception, on the comprehension and production of language, and on acquired disorders of language. Previous knowledge of the area is not required as all the basic concepts are explained as they are introduced and the use of technical jargon has been kept to a minimum. Elegantly and engagingly written, the book is unique in adopting such a wide coverage which considers the acquisition and skilled adult use of both spoken and written language, as well as developmental and acquired disorders of language.
