Abstract:

The use of printed words to capture language is one of the most remarkable
inventions of humankind, and learning to read them is one of the most
remarkable achievements of individuals. In recent decades, how we learn to
read and understand printed text has been studied intensely in genetics,
education, psychology, and cognitive science, and both the volume of research
papers and breadth of the topics they examine have increased exponentially. 

Theories of Reading Development collects within a single volume
state-of-the-art descriptions of important theories of reading development and
disabilities. The included chapters focus on multiple aspects of reading
development and are written by leading experts in the field. Each chapter is
an independent theoretical review of the topic to which the authors have made
a significant contribution and can be enjoyed on its own, or in relation to
others in the book. 

The volume is written for professionals, graduate students, and researchers in
education, psychology, and cognitive neuroscience. It can be used either as a
core or as a supplementary text in senior undergraduate and graduate education
and psychology courses focusing on reading development.
