  Research in cognitive psychology over the past 15 years or so has contributed much to our understanding of reading and spelling. Most of this work has concentrated on the processes used by literate adults to comprehend and produce written language, but there is growing interest in applying cognitive theories to the development of literacy, and to the understanding of disorders of reading and writing. This book looks at these disorders, attempting to present the work to a non-specialist audience.
