The material is well linked internally. Together, the chapters provide an important explanation of the debates that have long existed in reading circles. The book provides a forum to develop new philosophical lines of inquiry on reading rather than continuing to seek answers to traditional notions of reading instruction.... This important and exciting text illuminates key social and political issues surrounding the teaching of reading. A thought-provoking volume worthy of note.
