The present volume is based on the proceedings of the Advanced
Study Institute (ASI) sponsored by the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization (NATO). The Institute was conducted at the beautiful
Chateau de Bonas, near Toulouse, France in October, 1991. A number
of scholars from different countries participated in the two-week
institute on differential diagnosis and treatments of reading and
writing problems. The accepted papers for this volume are divided
into three sections: (a) Differential diagnosis of reading
disabilities; (b) Access to language-related component processes;
and (c) Reading/spelling strategies. The other papers appear in a
companion volume: Developmental and Acquired Dyslexia:
Neuropsychological and Neurolinguistic Perspectives, also coedited
by Joshi and Leong and published by Kluwer Academic Publishers.
Several people and organizations have helped us in this endeavor

the major portion of the financial support; Dr. L. V. da Cunha of
NATO and Dr. THo Kester and Mrs. Barbara Kester of the

Charles Stockman and the entire staff of the Chateau de Bonas for
making our stay a pleasant one by helping us to run the Institute
smoothly. We also wish to thank our reviewers and the following
people for other assistance: Christi Martin, and Xi-wu Fang.
