Reviews

"""This volume presents a wealth of cutting-edge ""pure"" research, much of which will be of definite interest to the second language acquisition researcher. It is particularly useful as an introduction to current experimental designs using recent technology to track eye movement and/or as an introduction to the extensive research in cognitive psychology using ""garden-path"" tasks."" —Teaching English as a Second or Foreign Language ""This volume sets forth an excellent overview of cutting-edge research in reading and language processing and illuminates many of the controversial issues related to human cognition....The great strengths of the book lie in its thematic coherence, balanced topical coverage, and consistent quality of the work presented. It will serve as a valuable reference for those interested in the cognitive aspects of language processing."" —Studies in Second Language ""The articles are written clearly and completely enough to be understood by someone with minimal cognitive science background. References, arguments and limitations appear to be well-presented; the conclusions and suggestions seem relevant and applicable to many fields relating to reading and/or to language processing."" —The Phonetician ""This book contains a number of interesting chapters related to written language processing. The book comprises studies that are likely to stand up in the literature and thus influence future research."" —European Journal of Cognitive Psychology"
