Book Description
Originally published in 1973, this book is an account of how the child learns the sound system of his native language, or how he learns to speak. A theory of the acquisition of phonology is derived from a detailed and rigorous analysis of the developing speech of a young child observed over a period of two years. The details of this analysis are elaborated in depth in chapters two and three and the major results of the study are given in chapter four. The final chapter is devoted to the implications of language acquisition for linguistic theory in general and generative phonology in particular. In addition to the obvious relevance of this work to general linguists and psychologists working on language acquisition, it was of considerable importance to speech therapists and all those involved medically with the observation and treatment of infant speech, in that it provided a characterisation of normal development which could act as a yardstick by which to measure abnormal or pathological conditions.

Book Description
Calling this a major contribution to the field of psycholinguistics, Professor Dennis Mol­fese notes that it "stands out as perhaps the major work in the area of phonological de­velopment in the last decade. It should be­come a major reference work and the proce­dures employed (both for data collection and, perhaps, more so for data analysis) could well set the tenor for the next decade." The eight essays by various contributors in this book review the literature on phonological development, emphasizing prob­lems relating to age, phonemes, and distinc­tive features. The methodology of data collection, storage, retrieval, presentation, and analysis is described. Data are presented descriptively by individual chapters for each of five age groups: 18, 24, 36, 48, and 72 months. Summary data are presented, using both descriptive and inferential statistics across the entire sample. One hundred children, 20 at each age group, served as subjects. All language sam­ples were collected in spontaneous situa­tions. A total of 86,661 phonemes was en­tered for analysis. Two distinctive feature systems--the Irwin-Wong and the Chom­sky-Halle--were employed in all analyses. Data for both phonemes and distinctive fea­tures were presented in terms of distri­bution, acceptability of production, and na­ture of any replacement.
