Reading this forum, I suddenly remembered a book I've read recently. I think many of you will be interested in the book; although some of you will disagree with the book (those who have made up their mind about how languages are learnt). The book presents the main theories on language learning, presenting evidence from many different studies. It is very accessible for an academic book, and not prescriptive about what does and does not work.
Lightbown, P. & Spada, N. (2006) How Languages are Learned, Oxford, Oxford University Press.

I studied second language acquisition at university and try to stay informed about the most recent research. I'll certainly be interested in reading this book. Thanks.
