Reading is a unique human ability that has become very pivotal for functioning in our world today. As modern societies rely extensively on literacy skills, and as reading disabilities have profound personal, economic and social consequences, it is surprising that we have a very underdeveloped scientific understanding of the neural basis of reading and visual word recognition in the normal brain. This book fills this gap in the literature by addressing some of the fundamental questions in reading research.

The Neural Basis of Reading 1st Table of contents:

Part I: Behavioral Data

1. Neural Constraints on a Functional Architecture for Word Recognition

2. Features Are Fundamental in Word Recognition

5. Neural Coding of Written Words in the Visual Word Form Area

6. The Neural Bases of Reading: Universals and Writing System Variations

7. Functional Neuroanatomy of Reading in Japanese: Language-specific Exploitation of the Visual Word

8. Visual Word Recognition: The First 500 Milliseconds, Recent Insights from Magnetoencephalography
