Reading Development and Difficulties

By Kate K. Cain

The second edition of this accessible text brings together research on word reading and comprehension development, which are often treated separately, and provides a comprehensive and detailed introductory text to reading development and difficulties. Key features include an introduction to the important issues in reading research, a consideration of the similarities and differences between written and spoken language, and a consideration of the implications of research for the teaching of reading and the diagnosis and treatment of reading difficulties. This text will be useful to many different groups of readers, not only researchers and students in psychology, but also those who work in applied settings.
