Description
In Language at the speed of sight, internationally renowned cognitive scientist Mark Seidenberg reveals the under explored science of reading, which spans cognitive science, neurobiology, and linguistics. As Seidenberg shows, the disconnect between science and education is a major factor in America's chronic underachievement. By building on science's insights, we can improve how our children read, and take real steps toward solving the inequality that illiteracy breeds.
