Focusing on the often-overlooked study of bilingualism, this book offers insights from over twenty-five years of research. It explores the definition of bilingual individuals, their language perception and production, and the unique sign-oral bilingualism of the Deaf. The author emphasizes the importance of a psycholinguistic perspective while incorporating sociolinguistic elements, particularly regarding the experiences of bilingual and bicultural individuals. Additionally, it advocates for collaboration among researchers across language sciences and neurosciences to enhance understanding in the field.
