Learning Disabilities cover

This volume has been developed as a direct result of a conference sponsored by the International Academy for Research in Learning Disabilities, held at the University of California at Los Angeles. The text provides a review and critique of current research in the areas of intelligence, social cognition, achievement, and subtyping as they relate to learning disabilities. In addition, the concept that social behavior is an aspect of intelligence and the relationship between language and reading are discussed in detail by noted experts.

"Without doubt, it is an excellent book for the researcher, and those who are also teachers will want their graduate students to read it."
—Journal of Behavioral Education

"Swanson and Keogh have done an excellent job compiling information from four broad, but related, areas in LD. I recommend this book for graduate students interested in the area. It provides a clear, concise review of many of the theoretical and applied research issues confronting the field."
—Contemporary Psychology
