Editorial Reviews

A much discussed and still woefully misunderstood topic is clearly covered by an author with a personal and professional interest in dyslexia. Nosek explains clearly the characteristics of dyslexia, the steps to take for a student's evaluation, and, most valuable of all, how to cut through the disbelievers and bureaucrats who stand in the way of a child's education. Some terrific conversational scenarios will help tongue-tied parents cut through red tape and find necessary answers. Nosek also discusses dyslexia in adults, offering information on employment issues, support groups, and reading and organizational training. Extremely useful are the annotated bibliographies that follow each chapter.
