"Understanding Reading" revolutionized reading research and theory when the first edition appeared in 1971. In the sixth edition, Smith's purpose remains the same: to shed light on fundamental aspects of the complex human act of reading - linguistic, physiological, psychological, and social - and on what is involved in learning to read.

Delves into how we come to terms with ourselves, with other people, and with the world in general. This book aims to describe the scope and limits for how we can be seen to think, learn, understand, and remember - but not to "explain" such behavior by recourse to hypothetical inner entities.

This updated edition aims to provide a framework for thinking about the act of writing in both theoretical and practical ways. A chapter on computers and writing is included, as well as more about the role of reading in learning to write, and about learning to write at all ages.
