This collection of papers introduces a new dimension in the understanding of reading by focussing on the relation between spoken and written language processing. It introduces new perspectives on speech and reading by highlighting aspects of the two that have received little attention in the past. The comparative approach to speech and reading concerns new approaches to the development of speech and reading, the existence of unconventional input modalities like Braille reading and lipreading, the study of populations with specific disorders in the abilities implicated in normal speaking and reading.
