They also represent more than half of the children who receive special education services in the United States. Yet, learning disabilities remain poorly understood.

Learning Disabilities Sourcebook provides parents and other concerned individuals with authoritative information to help them understand learning disabilities, current diagnostic methods, and approaches to treatment.
