Part one, 'Speech Analysis and Phonological Processing', addresses issues related to the mental representation and processing of Chinese phonological information as well as the interactions between auditory language processing and reading. The focus of part two, 'Perception and Processing of Characters', is on how basic visual-spatial units of the logographic writing system are perceived, mentally represented, and processed. Part three, 'Processing of Words and Sentences', extends the concerns of part two to the cognitive processing of larger linguistic units beyond the morphemic level. And part four, 'First and Second Language Acquisition and Processing', deals with how children and adults learn to read or use an East Asian language.

It explains industrial restructuring as a defensive counteraction to structural contradictions in production, which leads to a deepening of the division of labour through four mechanisms: intensification, rationalization, technological change, and transplantation.
