Description: Visual Aspects of Dyslexia, Hardcover by Stein, John (EDT); Kapoula, Zoi (EDT), ISBN 019958981X, ISBN-13 9780199589814, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Dyslexia affects about 10% of all children and is a potent cause of loss of self-confidence, personal and family misery, and waste of potential. Although the dominant view is that it is caused by specifically linguistic/phonological weakness, recent research within the field of neuroscience
has shown that it is associated wtih visual processing problems as well. These discoveries have led to a resurgence in visual methods of treatment, which have shown promising results.
Visual aspects of dyslexia brings together cutting edge research from a range of disciplines - including neurology, neuroscience, and the vision sciences, to present the first comprehensive review of this recent research. It includes chapters from leading specialists which, in addition to
reporting on the latest research, show how this knowledge is being successfully applied in the development of effective visual treatments for this common problem. Sections within th cover the role of eye movements in reading, visual attention and reading, the neural bases of reading, and the
relationship between visual stress and dyslexia.
Making a valuable contribution in helping us develop a deeper understanding of dyslexia, this is an important book for those in the fields of psychology, neuroscience, and education.
