Subject: [LearningDisabilities 1947] Seminal resources in the field
ofLearning Disabilities

 

Greetings all,

 

I'd like to solicit your help in creating a bibliography of the seminal
works informing the field of learning disabilities.  What do you feel
are the most important, influential resources?  If someone is new to the
field, what would you recommend they read?

 

The resources may or may not be online.  I am willing to compile these
resources into a list with bibliographic information for our use.

 

Thanks for your input,

Aaron
