The purpose of the Neuropsychology and Cognition series is to bring out volumes that promote understanding in topics relating brain and behavior. It is intended for use by both clinicians and research scientists in the fields of neuropsychology, cognitive psychology, psycholinguistics, speech and hearing, as well as education. Examples of topics to be covered in the series would relate to memory, language acquisition and breakdown, reading, attention, developing and aging brain. By addressing the theoretical, empirical, and applied aspects of. brain-behavior relationships, this series will try to present the information in the fields of neuropsychology and cognition in a coherent manner. The titles published in this series are listed at the end o/this volume.

Acknowledgements
I thank R. Malatesha Joshi, Editor of the Neuropsychology and Cognition Series published by Kluwer, for his encouragement in bringing these two edited volumes on orthography to fruition. He has believed for a long time that orthography has not been given sufficient attention by reading acquisition researchers, who have tended to emphasize the role of phonology in learning to read. It was at his invitation that this project was initiated. I also thank Sylvia Mirsepassi at the University of Washington who converted all the contributions to these volumes into camera-ready copy. Without her computer expertise this project would not have been possible. I am also grateful to all the contributors to these volumes whose enthusiasm
