Dyslexia and Gender Bias (eBook, ePUB)

A Critical Review

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Providing an overview of approaches taken to dyslexia over the last 100 years, this text considers why men have traditionally taken the lead in dyslexia theory and research, whilst women have often been confined to practice. Montgomery thus argues that gender bias has played an obstructive role in the development of our understanding of dyslexia.
