encycloPedIA of lAnguAge develoPment
Patricia J. Brooks, College of Staten Island, CUNY • Vera Kempe, University of Abertay Dundee, UK
The progression from newborn to sophisticated language user in just a few short years is often described as wonderful
and miraculous. What are the biological, cognitive, and social underpinnings of this miracle? What major language
development milestones occur in infancy? What methodologies do researchers employ in studying this progression?
Why do some become adept at multiple languages while others face a lifelong struggle with just one? What accounts
for declines in language profi ciency, and how might such declines be moderated? Despite an abundance of textbooks,
specialized monographs, and a couple of academic handbooks, there has been no encyclopedic reference work in
this area--until now. Encyclopedia of language Development covers the breadth of theory and research on language
development from birth through adulthood, as well as their practical application.

dISAbIlIty through the lIfe courSe
Tamar Heller, University of Illinois at Chicago • Sarah Parker Harris, University of Illinois at Chicago
This volume in The SAgE reference Series on Disability explores issues involving disability through the life courses,
and is one of eight volumes in the cross-disciplinary and issues-based series, which examines topics central to the
lives of individuals with disabilities and their families. With a balance of history, theory, research, and application,
specialists set out the fi ndings and implications of research and practice for others whose current or future work
involves the care and/or study of those with disabilities, as well as for the disabled themselves. The presentational
style (concise and engaging) emphasizes accessibility. Taken individually, each volume sets out the fundamentals
of the topic it addresses, accompanied by compiled data and statistics, recommended further readings, a guide to
organizations and associations, and other annotated resources, thus providing the ideal introductory platform and
gateway for further study. Taken together, the series represents both a survey of major disability issues and a guide to
new directions and trends and contemporary resources in the fi eld as a whole.
