505 _a"Language processing in bilingual children explores the linguistic and cognitive abilities of bilingual children. The results of early studies in this area were influenced by roughly constructed research designs and political agendas that determined what the acceptable findings ought to be. However, research over the last decade has produced a far more complex picture of the capabilities of bilingual children. The ten papers in this volume place it firmly at the forefront of current research. They explore the performance of bilingual children over a range of language uses, and use linguistics, psychology, and educational theory to analyze them. All the studies report original research, and all are sensitive to the important influences of social and educational factors that were frequently ignored in early research. The evidence converges to show that there is no universal advantage or deficit for bilingual children, but in some situations there are some implications for the achievement of high levels of language proficiency and for success in school. Finally, the implications of these findings for policy setting and the development of bilingual education programmes are explored." (Book Cover)
