The reported investigation has the objective to develop the theory of amplified linear acceleration emission (ALAE) by relativistic electrons propagating along curved magnetic field lines, and to explore it as a mechanism for pulsar radio emission. Existing pulsar radio emission mechanisms are examined, taking into account a critique of 'coherent' emission and an alternative emission mechanism considered by Hardee and Rose (1976) and Hinata (1976). Attention is given to a qualitative discussion of ALAE, the assumptions and emission formulas in the case of linear acceleration emission, the transfer equation for linear acceleration emission, aspects of amplified linear acceleration emission, and the effect of curved field lines. In applying ALAE to pulsars, the essential features which must be explained are the observed frequency range of emission, the inferred brightness temperatures, and the estimated power radiated.
