With its primary focus on language development, Born to Talk is a comprehensive, contemporary, reader-friendly view of language development. It encompasses new and exciting contributions to the information about human language acquisition, and examines the complex array of topics that provide the foundation for human communication and its development from birth through young adulthood. The 7th Edition includes a new chapter and appendices on language sampling, making it particularly useful for students and practitioners in speech-language pathology, early childhood education, general education, special education and related disciplines.
