How the brain learns to read before? There are methods of reading better than others? Then, we use the same cortical areas when we read Italian, Arabic or Chinese? Stanislas Dehaene shows us how to respond to these questions need to create a whole new science of reading, able to combine what neuroimaging tell us about the cortical circuits underlying the development of graphemes and phonemes with what psychology teaches us cognitive mechanisms related to the art of reading. Hence, we come to know that Read our ongoing acquisition of cortical circuits originally intended for recognition of objects have been "recycled" to decipher the characters more different sizes and shapes and that this conversion was slow, partial and not without difficulty, as evidenced by repeated setbacks they face the children (and not only ...). This science of reading, however, has a value of not only theoretical but also practical, especially in view of a new pedagogy capable of introducing the diverse world of the school's most recent achievements in neuroscience.
