Originally published in 1971, this book constitutes a scientific enquiry into the basis of reading, and dyslexia.

Seller's Description:
Like New. Firm and square with sharp corners, just a few very minor rubs. Hence a non-text page is stamped 'damaged'. Despite such this book is actually in nearly new condition. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight. And so it's now offered for sale at a very reasonable price.
