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 on 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 remaining accessible to students and
classroom teachers. 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. To aid readers in making up their
own minds, each chapter concludes with a brief statement of
"Issues." Understanding Reading: A Psycholinguistic Analysis of
Reading and Learning to Read, Sixth Edition is designed to serve as
a handbook for language arts teachers, a college text for basic
courses on the psychology of reading, a guide to relevant research
on reading, and an introduction to reading as an aspect of thinking
and learning. It 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.
