Alexia is a very complex topic. There are many forms of grouping, and many subtypes in each grouping. On going research continues to provide a greater understanding of the neurological issues which can cause Alexia, which can result in new subtypes, new Theoretical Models of Reading, and even new classifications.

So we need research resources to provide both in depth information and citations, for the what is accepted at this point in time and at all times in the future.

The starting place original Neuroanatomical classifications, To help define the various sub various sub variation which clinicians and researcher were seeing, the Psycholinguistic or cognitive Models of Reading were developed to provide better perspective of Alexia.
