reviewed Bio-Linguistics: The Santa Barbara Lectures on March 28, 2013 Bio-Linguistics
I like the importance Johnson places on socio-cultural factors in language learning. But she goes a way overboard with the idea. It has its place, but it is not the only thing. Let's not overreact here! Among her more contentious conclusions, I really like that she eliminates the difference between language competence and language production. That always seemed so arbitrary and useless to me. If you can't talk with people, you can't speak the language. Sorry.
