Deep dyslexia – a variety of reading disorder that can result from brain injury in a previously literate adult – was the subject of more intensive individual case studies than any other syndrome in neurolinguistics and neuropsychology. Originally published in 1987, this book, now in its second edition, was acknowledged as the major work in the field at the time. It demonstrates that, when guided by an explicit theoretical framework, such case studies can result in both precise understanding of the patients’ deficits and striking insight into the nature of normal reading processes. This revised edition includes a new chapter, reviewing work done since the first edition appeared. Today it can be read in its historical context.

Max Colheart is Emeritus Professor in the School of Psychological Sciences, Macquarie University, Australia. He is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science, the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia, and the British Academy. He is currently working on the cognitive neuropsychology and computational psychology of reading and on several topics in cognitive neuropsychiatry, especially delusional belief.

John C. Marshall (1939–2007) was a British cognitive neuropsychologist, who played a pioneering role in the establishment of cognitive neuropsychology as a discipline, and in modeling of language disorders and dyslexia. He also pioneered cognitive models of the understanding of neuropsychiatric disorders. His Doctorate in Psychology was from the University of Reading, UK. He taught at the University of Edinburgh and at the Catholic University in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. In Oxford he was external scientific staff with the Medical Research Council, UK. His primary areas of research interest were the cognitive neuropsychology of: reading, and of visuo-spatial attention. His final position was the Oxford University Professor of Neuropsychology (and subsequently, Professor Emeritus).
