    About this ebook

    This collection of 33 papers represents the most current thinking and
    research on the study of cognitive processing in bilingual individuals. The
    contributors include well-known figures in the field and promising new
    scholars, representing four continents and work in dozens of languages.
    Instead of the social, political, or educational implications of
    bilingualism, the focus is on how bilingual people (mostly adults) think
    and process language.
