The Human Brain and the Learning of Secondary Languages

Abstract

Canada and India have strong bonds of mutual understanding. We face common problems within and without. India is a land of many languages. Canada is a bilingual country. French is the mother tongue of the majority in the province of Quebec, where I live. It has been suggested that I should give two broadcasts on the subject of the Human Brain and the Learning of Secondary Languages. But, I must confess at the outset, that I am a surgeon, not a school teacher.
