...Readers will recognize in this book many ideas that are now common to Russian and North American psychologies, but they also will find many innovative features characteristic of the branch of Russian neuropsychology represented in the volume. Some ideas will be reminiscent of what has been presented in books on Russian psychology in English before, whereas others will be new. All in all, Overcoming Learning Disabilities: A Vygotskian-Lurian Neuropsychological Approach is a wonderful read, connecting the past and the present and the West and the East. --Dr. Elena L. Grigorenko, Yale, Columbia University and Moscow State University, PsycCRITIQUES
