This book, first published in 1983, raises fundamental questions about the nature of language development, the effects of literacy on oral language habits, and the sources of communication problems in schools and workplaces. Heath focuses on two communities, 'Roadville' and 'Tracton', which are only a few miles apart, but the language especially in children are very different.
