Laying the foundation for effective middle and secondary school literacy programs, this is the most comprehensive treatment of adolescent literacy that I&#8217;ve seen to date. Wood and Blanton are highly regarded experts in this critical field, and, together with their outstanding contributors, they provide a thorough examination of theory and instructional practice.--Gary Moorman, PhD, Department of Language, Reading and Exceptionalities, Appalachian State University The list of authors in this unique volume reads like a 'who's who' of adolescent literacy. They offer a comprehensive overview of the field, combining relevant research with practical classroom applications in every chapter. This is an excellent text for classroom teachers, preservice teachers, and teacher educators.--Dixie Massey, PhD, Department of Curriculum and Instruction, University of Washington Leaders in the field of adolescent literacy have created an essential volume that distills and clarifies the most important messages about helping our youth grow as literate people. The book is well organized and its messages are accessible for teacher educators, literacy coaches, and practicing teachers. This work is current and fresh, expanding traditional views of literacy and making them useful in a world of interdependent languages, technologies, and educational milieus.--Douglas Kaufman, PhD, Neag School of Education, University of Connecticut This book is important in that it paints a new landscape of goals, learners, and instructional practices for adolescent literacy. It not only reimagines essential topics in literacy for all learners, but also addresses some new wrinkles, including fluency, online comprehension, and increased awareness of the needs of English language learners. This book will be much appreciated by educators who seek new directions for promoting adolescent literacy achievement.--Mark W. Conley, PhD, Department of Instruction and Curriculum Leadership, University of Memphis-The text makes a significant contribution to the field, because the range of articles represents a synthesis of the most current research-based methods for promoting the literacy of adolescent learners in all content areas....The text is also designed to expose the reader to the issues that apply to the acquisition and improvement of adolescent literacy through reading, thinking, interacting, and teacher's instruction of subject matter, and appropriately addresses many audiences, such as teacher educators, graduate students, and teachers both in the field and entering the profession....As a professor teaching courses in a literacy master's program, I have found the design of this book to be particularly useful. The material is easily conveyed in a meaningful, teacher-friendly mode. Each chapter begins with a set of guiding questions that frame the purpose of the chapter's contents. Woven throughout each chapter are descriptions of the principles and goals of effective literacy instruction along with classroom examples. Each chapter concludes with another set of questions designed to ask readers to consider and apply the information, and elicit effective class discussions....The chapters in this volume, while representing various theoretical frameworks and methodological principles, all contribute an appeal to the need for educators to continue to provide thoughtful, ongoing, research-based subject matter instruction to adolescent literacy learners. This appeal is multifaceted and reflected through the literacy practices of adolescents in the classroom, the home, and contexts outside the school setting....An important text.--Journal of Adolescent and Adult Literacy, 3/15/2009

This book heralds a new age in clinical neuropsychology. Marcotte and Grant have done a masterful job of identifying leaders in the field of everyday functioning to capture the breadth and depth of this critical and challenging area. Chapters provide an excellent framework for assessing everyday functioning and its relationship to cognitive deficits across a wide spectrum of etiologies and types of functions. The volume is 'must' reading for clinicians and researchers, and the functional impact of neuropsychological deficits should be a cornerstone of neuropsychological training programs. Instructors in the field will find this book an indispensable text.--Kathleen Y. Haaland, PhD, ABPP-CN, New Mexico VA Healthcare System and Departments of Neurology and Psychiatry, University of New MexicoFinally, a book that puts the brain into the context of the real world! The editors and contributors should be commended for this remarkable, broad-reaching volume that explores the neuropsychological underpinnings of some of our most fundamental tasks of everyday living. Not since Halstead&#8217;s seminal Brain and Intelligence has the ecological validity of neuropsychological procedures been systematically raised to such a truly scientific plane of inquiry. Thought provoking and generative, this book is 'must' reading for practitioners, researchers, advanced graduate students, and instructors.--Gordon J. Chelune, PhD, ABPP-CN, Senior Neuropsychologist, Center for Alzheimer&#8217;s Care, Imaging and Research, Department of Neurology, University of UtahOften, clinicians and investigators find it difficult to understand the implications of neuropsychological test performance for real-world functioning. This comprehensive book presents state-of-the-art approaches for the evaluation of function in applied situations. It then explores the relationship between cognition and function in specific medical conditions and contexts. This book will be of great value to both the student and the experienced clinical practitioner. It will also serve as an important guide to investigators who wish to explore the functional implications of cognitive changes.--Yaakov Stern, PhD, Division Leader, Cognitive Neuroscience Division, Columbia University-

This volume fills an important gap in the literature on mathematics disabilities. Chapters by leaders in the field address important, timely, and challenging issues related to standards, curriculum, and individualized teaching approaches for middle school students who are struggling in math. The volume is a valuable source of information for preservice as well as inservice special educators. It would be an excellent text for math methods courses in teacher preparation programs.--Nancy C. Jordan, EdD, University of Delaware The teaching and learning of mathematics has become an especially high-stakes endeavor. The associated challenges are only compounded for children with learning disabilities, their teachers, and their parents. Montague and Jitendra have assembled a strong group of scholars to address core issues regarding the mathematics education of these students. This is a timely and much-needed contribution that will help to expand the field of mathematics learning disabilities beyond the elementary school years, and that provides a good resource for teachers who are working to educate these students.--David C. Geary, PhD, University of Missouri-ColumbiaThis book provides useful suggestions for developing a rigorous math program in an inclusive setting. It emphasizes a strategy-based approach to learning that encourages higher-order thinking from all students. Providing a framework for creating a positive, collaborative classroom environment, the book will help to bridge the achievement gap for students with mathematics disabilities.--Christopher Love, MAT, Montgomery County Public Schools, Maryland Montague and Jitendra, both prominent researchers on their own, have assembled an outstanding group of authors to present the latest knowledge about learning and instruction for students with mathematics disabilities. This important text should be required reading for all researchers, graduate students, and practitioners interested in scientifically based, state-of-the-art practices. Although the focus is middle school students, those working with elementary and high school students will also benefit from the information presented in this volume.--Thomas Scruggs, PhD, George Mason University -The book makes a significant contribution in terms of providing an explanation of the history of the disconnect between the fields of special education and mathematics education.--PsycCRITIQUES, 6/26/2006
