Abstract:

This volume draws together current research on dyslexia and literacy in
multilingual settings across disciplines and methodologies. The contributors,
all internationally recognised in the field, address developmental and
acquired literacy difficulties and dyslexia in a range of language contexts
including EAL/EFL. The book uses theories and analytical frameworks of a
critical nature to reveal prejudicial social practices, and suggests future
research directions towards a critical re-consideration of current
understandings of dyslexia in multilingual settings, with a view to
foregrounding the potential for interdisciplinarity. The book also suggests
ways forward for evidence-informed practice, and it will be a valuable
resource for researchers, practitioners and students alike.
