Her scholarly influence has defined contemporary research on atypical development, notably in the fields of autism and dyslexia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tribute to Uta brings together her former graduate students, post-doctoral scientists and collaborators in a series of papers that provide reflections on current theory and research. The volume bears the hallmark of Uta’s mentoring by including critical ‘state of the art’ reviews, empirical research which challenges mainstream views and consideration of alternative hypotheses that set the stage for future research. Topics covered include behavioural and neuroimaging studies of autism, dyslexia, psychopathy, as well as theoretical and experimental accounts of normal and abnormal development of intelligence, reading and social cognition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis special issue of the \u003cem\u003eQuarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology\u003c\/em\u003e will be of interest to all students and researchers in the area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"This selection celebrates the work of Uta Frith, whose tireless exploration into developmental neuropsychology has helped to illuminate practicing psychologists while furthering the treatment of patients who present with developmental cognitive disorders.\"\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e- John Aiello, The Electric Review\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"This selection celebrates the work of Uta Frith, whose tireless exploration into developmental neuropsychology has helped to illuminate practicing psychologists while furthering the treatment of patients who present with developmental cognitive disorders.\"\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e- John Aiello, The Electric Review\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eBibliography: Publications by Uta Frith. \u003cem\u003eD.V.M.
