Jackie Stewart, one of auto racing’s most successful drivers, is the focus of a story about dyslexia by John Crase in the education section of the Guardian (London, GB). Mr. Crase draws parallels between Mr. Stuart’s success and the difficulties faced by Saydul Miah, a 10-year old who stuggled with learning to read until he received help from a private tutoring organization. Mr. Crase also uses the story to highlight an effort to endow a chair on dyslexia at Aberdeen University and otherwise raise awareness of dyslexia.
