Books like Language Development and Learning to Read by Diane McGuinness


Diane McGuinness investigates the persistent disparities in reading skill despite uniform teaching methods. By assessing individual differences in perceptual, linguistic, and cognitive abilities, she critiques the dominant phonological development theory and highlights the pivotal role of core language functions. Drawing on longitudinal studies from developmental psychology, psycholinguistics, and speech and hearing sciences, McGuinness argues for a paradigm shift in understanding how to foster reading success.
