Understanding Reading revolutionized reading research and theory
when the first edition appeared in 1971 and continues to be a
leader in the field. In the sixth edition of this classic text
Smith's purpose remains the same: to shed light on fundamental
aspects of the complex human act of reading - linguistic,
physiological, psychological, and social - and of what is involved
in learning to read. The text critically examines current theories,
instructional practices, and controversies, covering a wide range
of disciplines but always remains accessible. Careful attention is
given to the ideological clash that continues between whole
language and direct instruction and currently permeates every
aspect of theory and research into reading and reading instruction.
In every edition, including the present one, Smith has steadfastly
resisted giving teachers a recipe for teaching reading, while
aiming to help them make their own decisions, based on research
about reading, which is accessible to anyone, and their experience
and personal knowledge of their students, which only they possess.
To aid readers in making up their own minds, each chapter concludes
with a brief statement of "Issues." Understanding Reading, Sixth
Edition is matchless in integrating a wide range of topics relative
to reading while, at the same time, being highly readable and
user-friendly for instructors, students, and practitioners.
