The ""Intertext"" series has been specifically designed to meet the needs of contemporary English language studies. ""Working with Texts: A Core Introduction to Language Analysis"" (second edition, 2001) is the foundation text, which is complemented by a range of ""satellite"" titles. These provide students with hands-on practical experience of textual analysis through special topics and can be used individually or in conjunction with ""Working with Texts"". ""The Language of Children"": introduces the key theories of language acquisition and provides a historical overview of the subject; looks at all the ways children learn to communicate, from writing and talking to playing and using computers; includes a wide variety of real texts and data, from children's hand-written stories toemails and records of babies' first words; explores the language of children from a range of backgrounds and abilities, including deaf and bilingual children; and is user-friendly and accessible.
