Reviews

The topic is cutting edge. McNamara provides readers with a deep understanding of the limitations and built-in biases of most assessment instruments used when diagnosing children as learning disabled. Learning Disabilities: Appropriate Practices for a Diverse Population is quite useful in prompting reflection about what it would take to develop assessment that is genuinely multicultural. - Susan Merrifield, Lesley College
