Dyslexia: Different Brain, Different Behavior is intended for anyone with an interest in how processing deficits of the developing human brain may contribute to failures in reading and spelling. Readers will learn about how different brain activity measures may help to understand the complexity of language specific and domain general functions underlying reading, how atypical brain structures may be responsible for failures in the reading performance, and how the brain activity pattern of dyslexics may change from childhood to adulthood. Dyslexia: Different Brain, Different Behavior is a valuable resource for researchers, graduate students, educators and other professionals in the fields of psycholinguistics, speech pathology, neuropsychology, cognitive development, educational psychology, school psychology, developmental psychology, child development and language acquisition.
