The Input Hypothesis: Issues and Implications - Krashen, Stephen D.

Clean, tight, unmarked; very light wear to edges; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; appears unread; Krashen explains the Input Hypothesis, which is the central part of his well-known theory of second-language acquisition. This theory of second-language learning claims that we acquire language in an amazingly simple way - when we understand messages. The three chapters in this book review the evidence that supports the Input Hypothesis, put forward current questions and challenges and, after assessing its implications, sketch some applications of the Input Hypothesis to a variety of teaching situations. As such it will be of interest to researchers and teachers and to all those who study the current trends in thinking about second language acquisition.
