Reading across languages and cultures is one of the most imperative abilities in today's world. This groundbreaking book carefully examines the theory and research that drives one's ability to read so that we can make principled implications for healthcare, legal and educational systems across the globe. The book underscores the responsibility of researchers to replicate scientific studies on reading with participants across different language populations. It is our duty. Cindy Brantmeier
