Specific Learning Disabilities and Difficulties in Children and Adolescents: Psychological Assessment and Evaluation

Rating:
Summary: Integrated, complete, and well-done!
Review: Wow -- a really well-done book that captures a wide spectrum of ideas and research on learning disabilities. What I find remarkable about this book is that for nearly every test that is talked about here, the test authors themselves write the chapter -- Woodcock writes about the Woodcock-Johnson, Feuerstein writes about dynamic assessment, and Reitan writes about the Halstead-Reitan. An integrative chapter by the editors brings everything together. Worth checking out.
