Descrizione
This work delves into the complex processes underlying language acquisition, focusing on the interplay between biological and environmental factors. Lenneberg explores how children develop linguistic skills through natural interactions, shedding light on the universal principles that govern language learning.
The author emphasizes the critical period hypothesis, positing that there are optimal windows for language development that are influenced by cognitive and social dimensions. Through a blend of empirical research and theoretical discussion, this book stands as a cornerstone for understanding how language emerges in the human mind, illustrating the remarkable capabilities inherent in human beings from an early age.
