Handbook of Reading Research Volume IV

<p>The <em>Handbook of Reading Research</em> is <em>the</em> research <em>Handbook </em>for the field. Each volume has come to define the field for the period of time it covers. <em>Volume IV</em> follows in this tradition. The editors extensively reviewed the reading research literature since the publication of <em>Volume III</em> in 2000 as portrayed in a wide array of research and practitioner-based journals and books to identify the themes and topics covered. As in previous volumes the focus is on reading research rather than a range of literate practices. When taken as a set the four volumes provide a definitive history of reading research. <em>Volume IV</em> brings the field authoritatively and comprehensively up-to-date.</p>
