Recently, in the area of learning disabilities, a subarea of
special educa tion, an interesting development has become
discernible. This develop ment centers on the increasing focus of
learning disabilities professionals on theory building and
empirical research, and it is reflected in the spate of books
currently being published. With their clear emphasis on con ceptual
and methodological issues along with directions for future re
search, these newly published books differ essentially from the
bulk of learning disabilities textbooks. They include S. Vaughn and
C. Bos (Eds. ), Research in Learning Disabilities: Issues and
Future Directions, published in 1987 by College-Hill; T. E. Scruggs
and B. Y. L. Wong (Eds. ), Intervention Research in Learning
Disabilities, published in 1990 by Springer-Verlag; and L. Swanson
(Ed. ), Learning Disabilities: Theore tical and Research Issues,
published in 1991 by Lawrence Erlbaum Asso ciates. As reflected in
these three books, the discipline began with a service orientation
and has evolved beyond that to come of age with aspirations of
becoming a scientific discipline. These books can be taken to voice
the concerted efforts, of learning disabilities professionals to
promote theory building and empirical research. Undeniably these
books provide valuable information on conceptual issues and
research in learning disabilities. Nevertheless, they appear to
have one drawback, namely, they focus exclusively on learning
disabilities research in North America."
