SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Beyond Nature-Nurture: Essays in Honor of Elizabeth Bates should appeal to international scholars in the fields of developmental psycholinguistics, cognitive science, crosslinguistic research, and both child and adult language disorders. It is a state-of-the-art overview of many areas of cognitive science, and will be of classroom use at the graduate level in courses designed as seminars in any of these topics."--BOOK JACKET
