Rezensionen

'This book is a very useful text that introduces key concepts and findings in psycholinguistics. The text covers the core areas from biological aspects of language to language acquisition and language processing, and should encourage students to delve more deeply into all of these areas. I recommend it very highly.' - Professor Martin Pickering, University of Edinburgh

'John Field has written a very useful text that introduces key concepts and findings in psycholinguistics to students who need have no background in psychology or linguistics. He is very skilled at describing quite technical issues in straightforward language, and the exercises should greatly facilitate the learning process. The text covers the core areas of psycholinguistics, from biological aspects of language to language acquisition and language processing, and should encourage students to delve more deeply into all of these areas. I recommend it very highly.' - Professor Martin Pickering, University of Edinburgh
