  Subject: [LearningDisabilities 908] Basic Text on Learning Disabilities


  Hi all,

  I received a request from an undergraduate student asking for a recommendation of a textbook she could read that would cover the basics on Learning Disabilities.  She has a family member with suspected, yet undiagnosed learning disabilities. She wants more than a few articles and doesn't want to complete online training. She thinks that possibly a career in teaching LD might be ahead for her and wants to begin reading a scholarly text on her own time.

  Do you have any good recommendations?  If those of you that teach at the undergraduate or graduate level can suggest some titles and authors, I will forward this on to her.  Recommendations for all others will be gratefully appreciated as well. 


  Thanks,

  Rochelle
