Extract

A Neurolinguistic Theory of Bilingualism. Michel Paradis. Amsterdam: Benjamins, 2004. Pp. vi + 299. $39.95 paper.

It is hard to think of anyone who is in a better position to talk about bilingualism and aphasia (differential patterns of recovery and so forth) than Paradis. Since the 1970s, he has been a central figure in this area of research, and it is widely recognized that his contribution has been major. It is impossible to imagine any discussion of the topic that does not rely heavily on his work. Given this author's prominence in the field, second language (L2) researchers will find much to admire in this volume.
