内容説明
An examination of the world-wide problem of dyslexia, in which experts from several disciplines present theory and latest research results dealing with this complex problem. It deals with both the neurophysiological basis and psychoanalytic interpretations. Dyslexia is generally seen as a problem involving the brain, and thus is a matter of central nervous system dysfunction. While the neurophysiological basis of the problem is accepted by the great majority of people working in the field, there are those who accredit the problem to psychoanalytic interpretation. The latter is yet to be proved, whilst neuroradiological and technological developments of the past five decades are so sophisticated that positive diagnosis of cerebral dysfunction can be made. Neuroradiology and neuropsychology are together able to provide an accurate evaluation of the presence of absence of cerebral pathology which may result in a diagnosis of dyslexia. Dyslexia is a complicated form of central nervous system dysfunction, but if it is discovered, diagnosed and treated at an early stage, it can be effectively combated.
This book covers various school and family situations which dyslexia sufferers face, and points out the many opportunities for early diagnosis. It also covers ways in which the dyslexic child, and adult, can overcome their disability, lead a normal life, and even achieve academic excellence.
