Routledge Handbook of Experimental Linguistics

Sandrine Zufferey is a Professor of French linguistics at the University of Bern, Switzerland.Pascal Gygax is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland.

Offering impressive breadth and depth of coverage, and surveying classic and cutting-edge approaches and techniques, The Routledge Handbook of Experimental Linguistics uniquely positions itself as an indispensable resource for the novice and expert linguistics researcher alike. Essential reading for any methods course, too. Highly recommended. Professor Panos Athanasopoulos, Lancaster University, UKThe use of experimental methods is no longer something peripheral but lies at the core of language studies. Yet we lack coherent overviews of the large body of methods and knowledge from experiments on language. This book fills a gap and it is essential for the new generation of linguists.Professor Valentina Bambini, University School for Advanced Studies IUSS Pavia, Italy
