Description
This volume is a welcome addition to the field of second language acquisition research. Lakshmanan’s use of second language acquisition data to contribute to debates in linguistic theory is particularly commendable, bolstering as it does the pivotal role second language acquisition research can play in theoretical research. A particular strength of the book is its serious consideration of individual differences in language learners and it succesfully conveys the complexity of interactions between Universal Grammar and individual learner differences.
