The Mislabeled Child

Here is a link to an interview with Drs' Brock and Fernette Eide the authors of an interesting looking book called The Mislabeled Child.

They have a website and blog which has specific reference material to dysgraphia in their library section which some readers may find helpful.

The blog has articles posted daily addressing all manner of pertinent topics relating to learning differences with a strong neurological emphasis.

Instead of hysterical activity like putting weapons in space, governments should consider investing serious dollars in studying the brain because as I heard Henry Marsh a pioneering neurosurgeon remark recently in a radio three essay as part of the freethinking festival "there's much we still don't know." (that's not a verbatim quote, but it was the gist of his sentiment).
