Dorit Ravid is our mentor, teacher, and dear friend. She is our role model. The way we think, teach, research, and supervise our own students is tremendously inspired by her. It is our privilege to edit this festschrift in honor of her impressive academic and scientific achievements, celebrating her formal retirement on her 70th birthday.

Through the years, Dorit has collaborated with numerous leading researchers around the world, many of whom became her long-time friends. This was reflected in the widely enthusiastic response to our invitation to contribute a chapter to this volume. The 29 chapters comprising this book attest to her worldwide academic and personal relationships. Moreover, the wide variety of topics conveyed in the book well represents the breadth of Dorit’s research interests, as described later in the book’s parts.

The book’s chapters are organized in six parts: Developmental Psycholinguisitics, Language and Cognition, Linguistic Literacy, Social and Environmental Diversity, Clinical Perspectives, and finally, Hebrew Linguistics. We are confident that this book will be of interest to scholars as well as to lay people curious about language in its wide context, including linguists and psycholinguists, speech-language pathologists, developmental psychologists, teachers, and students of these fields.
