The last 25 years have seen tremendous advances in the study of
psychological processes in reading. Our growing body of knowledge
on the reading process and reading acquisition has applications to
such important problems as the prevention of reading difficulties
and the identification of effective instructional practices. This
volume summarizes the gains that have been made in key areas of
reading research and provides authoritative insights on current
controversies and debates. From one of the most accomplished and
widely cited scholars in the field, the volume is divided into
seven parts. Each part begins with a new introductory chapter
presenting up-to-date findings on the topic at hand, followed by
one or more classic papers from the author's exemplary research
program. Significant issues covered include phonological processes
and context effects in reading, the "reading wars" and how they
should be resolved, the meaning of the term "dyslexia," and the
cognitive effects and benefits of reading.
