The Dyslexic Brain

MS. DIANE REHM: Thanks for joining us. I’m Diane Rehm. People with dyslexia often have trouble reading, spelling and other academic skills, challenges that can be clear disadvantages revealed in a new book. Co-authors Doctors Brock and Fernette Eide argue dyslexics often have particular abilities as well. Their book is titled, “The Dyslexic Advantage.” Brock Eide joins me from a studio at KQED in San Francisco.
