"Without doubt, it is an excellent book for the researcher, and those who are also teachers will want their graduate students to read it."—Journal of Behavioral Education"Swanson and Keogh have done an excellent job compiling information from four broad, but related, areas in LD. I recommend this book for graduate students interested in the area. It provides a clear, concise review of many of the theoretical and applied research issues confronting the field."—Contemporary Psychology
