About this product

Product Information

The book explores how bilingualism develops in childhood or later; on bilingualism's social, neurological, and psychological foundations; and on bilingualism's social and cultural consequences. It also examines the wider issues of languages in contact, both psycholinguistic and socio-political, and the applications of bilingual research to language teaching, translation and interpreting, and language planning and policy-making. Hamers and Blanc's book--a thoroughly revised and updated version of their textbook originally published in French--provides a comprehensive, critical review of current research, focusing on the need for genuinely explanatory accounts and the development of satisfactory theoretical models.

Reviews
"The appeal of the book is very wide: anybody who has had to deal with bilinguals individually or en masse will find something to chew over here.... Studies of the phenomena of bilingualism have long needed a book like this." Canadian Journal of Linguistics, "...the results are impressive as much by the ground covered as by the quality of the integration provided by the authors....In a field still plagued by atheoretical 'fact' gathering, Hamers and Blanc's certainly qualifies as an exceptional contribution to knowledge." Richard Clément, International Journal of the Sociology of Language, "Hamers and Blanc present us with a book which, at once, reviews pertinent knowledge from varied disciplines and provides integrated models. As such, their work, taken as a whole, is both an excellent textbook and an inspiring essay...Hamers and Blanc are at the forefront of a new generation of models on bilingualism." Journal of Language and Social Psychology, "...the results are impressive as much by the ground covered as by the quality of the integration provided by the authors....In a field still plagued by atheoretical 'fact' gathering, Hamers and Blanc's certainly qualifies as an exceptional contribution to knowledge." Richard Cl_ment, International Journal of the Sociology of Language, "Bilinguality and Bilingualism by Josiane Hamers and Michel Blanc provides us with an excellent survey of an area that has been lacking a concise and comprehensive textbook so far." Olli Kuure, SSLA
