A good textbook is invaluable when trying to dive into the specifics of a certain disorder or condition. When I find a text that is well-written and full of resources, I find that I come back to it time and time again.โฃ

Each of these texts is chock full of research and resources for alexia, and all come from a slightly different approach in terms of assessment and management. This makes it so that they all complement each other well and provide me with a wide array of clinical tools to use with clients!โฃ
