Specific Learning Difficulties (Dyslexia) - Challenges and Responses (Paperback, New edition)

Work with dyslexics is increasingly seen as a multidisciplinary concern, covering educational, psychological and medical questions. This reference book reflects this emphasis on collaboration. It contains information on the policies and practices of Local Education Authorities and Examination Boards and looks at the views of statutory bodies, voluntary organizations and parents. Drawing on the work of 11 experienced educational psychologists, it presents and evaluates a wide variety of approaches to prevention, identification and intervention and makes practical recommendations for future progress.
