Controversial, complex and multi-faceted, dyslexia has defied attempts at a consensus about its nature, underlying causes, and the methodology by which it should be studied; some even believe that it does not exist. This ground-breaking book sets out to unite three major areas of reading research which have traditionally been regarded as discrete disciplines: acquired dyslexia, which is caused by brain injury; developmental dyslexia, and normal early reading development. Employing innovative techniques, the similarities and contrasts between these three groups are investigated. Current theories and methodologies for studying these areas are reviewed, and possible cognitive and biological mechanisms which may underlie the literacy characteristics of the three groups are suggested. The compelling conclusion from the studies in this book is that a fleetingly brief period of normal reading development may hold the key.
