'A comprehensive and interesting new work on vocabulary acquisition. It systematically tackles all the central components of vocabulary knowledge, and explores original new empirical studies for each dimension of vocabulary.' Birgit Henriksen, University of Copenhagen, Denmark 'An excellent introduction to contemporary research on vocabulary knowledge. The wide range of topics covered by the various contributors does full justice to the complexity of this important area. This is an excellent resource for students and researchers starting out in this field.' Philip Durrant, University of Exeter, UK

Written for students of applied linguistics, this textbook is an indispensable introduction to the area of vocabulary knowledge. By linking the latest research to an overview of how the field is developing, the authors explore how learners handle what they know in second and foreign language vocabulary, and how they activate this information. Dimensions of Vocabulary Knowledge: - Offers a comprehensive investigation of the dimensions that constitute the word knowledge framework and identifies links between them - Synthesizes research on individual aspects of word knowledge - Presents new empirical research findings and considers the pedagogical implications of these - Provides questions for further classroom discussion

This volume defines vocabulary knowledge in each of the areas identified in Nation's framework of 'what is involved in knowing a word', and presents some of the latest exemplary research in these areas. It also explores how learners handle what they know, or partly know, in foreign language vocabulary, and how they activate this information.
