The Psycholinguistics of Bilingualism presents a comprehensive introduction to the foundations of bilingualism, covering language processing, language acquisition, cognition and the bilingual brain.This thorough introduction to the psycholinguistics of bilingualism is accessible to non-specialists with little previous exposure to the fieldIntroduces students to the methodological approaches currently employed in the field, including observation, experimenta...

This book offers a comprehensive examination of ongoing advancements in theoretical and experimental approaches to Maxwell's equations. It focuses on three key aspects: quantum effects, scale effects, and kinetic effects, which exert subtle influences at microscopic levels. Addressing pressing challenges for future progress, the text explores the interplay of these phenomena within classical electromagnetism.The evolution of data communication and information technology has led to ...

The book studies Alice Munro’s inheritance of and contribution to realism in fiction.Nobel Prize winner Munro follows the empirical tradition of the Enlightenment and draws on her life as a daughter, wife, mother, and professional writer while composing her fiction to reflect Canadian reality. She infuses her intellectual, moral, and aesthetic vision into her stories. This study analyzes her innovative realism in three respects: Her views on feminism and women’s issues, her firm ye...

This SpringerBrief offers two concrete design examples for traffic offloading. The first is an optimal resource allocation for small-cell based traffic offloading that aims at minimizing mobile users’ data cost. The second is an optimal resource allocation for device-to-device assisted traffic offloading that also minimizes the total energy consumption and cellular link usage (while providing an overview of the challenging issues). Both examples illustrate the importance of proper resource...
