A person must be able to  read and write in order to function adequately in society, and reading  and writing require a script. But what kinds of scripts are in use  today, and how do they influence the acquisition, use and spread of  literacy? \u003cem\u003eScripts and Literacy\u003c\/em\u003e is the first book to  systematically explore how the nature of a script affects how it is  read and how one learns to read and write it. It reveals the  similarities underlying the world's scripts and the features that  distinguish how they are read. \u003cbr\u003e  Scholars from different parts of the world describe several different  scripts, e.g. Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Indian Amerindian -- and how  they are learned. Research data and theories are presented. \u003cbr\u003e  This book should be of primary interest to educators and researchers  in reading and writing around the world. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401045063\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-1162-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 389\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47184592863372,"sku":"9789401045063","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401045063.jpg?v=1775010262","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401045063","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
