“This is a scholarly textbook
which should become essential reading for psychologists,
educationalists and speech and language therapists. Kate Cain has
an ability to present very complex issues with a degree of clarity
that ensures the reader comes to a deep understanding of the issues
and quality of the scientific evidence that she presents for
analysis.”
Professor Rhona
Stainthorp, Institute of Education, University
of Reading
"Kate Cain’s valuable account of the psychology of learning to read is clear, incisive and always interesting. It tells us how children learn to decipher single words and to read whole sentences, and also how they are eventually able to co-ordinate the meanings of several, different sentences in order to understand quite complicated texts."
Peter Bryant, Senior Research Fellow, Department of Education, Oxford University
