Description

A new collection of articles by one of the leading authorities on English and other foreign- and second-language teaching. All articles have been revised for publication, some extensively, to reflect the author's up-to-date views.

Wilga M. Rivers is one of the leading authorities on English and other foreign- and second-language teach- ing. This new collection of essays includes a number of widely quoted articles: "Talking off the Tops of Their Heads," "The Natural and the Normal in Language Learning," "Rules, Patterns, and Creativity," "Bridging the Gap to Autonomous Interaction," and "Foreign- Language Acquisition: Where the Real Problems Lie." All the articles have been revised for publication, some extensively, so that they reflect the author's up-to-date views.
Each chapter is accompanied by questions to help read- ers apply the ideas to their own teaching situations. The book is thus suitable for use in teacher-training courses, and it will be of great interest to experienced teachers as well.
"Anyone interested in language-learning theory, bilin- gualism, or second-language acquisition... should consult this book... Hardly another book approach- es its scope and depth."--Choice
