Publisher's Note
"There is no more definitive, and readable, account of why we have witnessed a huge increase of reading-disabled studentsand why we are mostly wrong in framing this and many other academic problems as a disability. Spear-Swerling and Sternberg masterfully demonstrate the disconnects between scientific evidence about poor reading and the views pushed by large parts of the learning disabiliyt industry. . . . A must-read for educators and a should-read for everyone interested in education".Albert Shanker, President, American Federation of Teachers.

Industry Reviews
For educators, parents, and others, Spear-Swerling (special education, Southern Connecticut State U.) and Sternberg (psychology and education, Yale U.) identify the dangers of labeling children as reading or learning disabled, and present a new theoretical model of reading disability which identifies four ways in which disabled readers depart from the path of typical reading development. Using illustrative case studies, the authors describe the four patterns of reading disability, explain how to properly assess them, and suggest ways to overcome them.
