With the passage of Public Law 94-142 in 1975, the learning
disability construct gained national legitimacy. Feeding that
political achievement, behind the very idea of a learning
disability, was the development of a science that blended
neurology, psychology, and education. This book tracks the
historical creation of the science of learning disabilities,
beginning with the clinical research with brain-injured World War I
soldiers conducted by German physician Kurt Goldstein. It traces
the growth of the two primary research traditions, the
psycholinguistic theory of Samuel Kirk and the movement education
of Newell Kephart, exploring how specific scientific orientations,
theories, and practices led to the birth of the learning disability
in the United States.
