"Second Language Acquisition and Linguistic Theory offers a state-of-the-art examination of formal properties of second language acquisition of phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics. It is an invaluable resource to students who want to learn about the field and to researchers looking to broaden their knowledge in the area." Keren Rice, University of Toronto.
John Archibald is Professor of Linguistics at the University of Calgary. He is author of Language Learnability and L2 Phonology (1993) and Second Language Phonology (1998).
