The first chapter of this book addresses the slow-learning child, pointing to the principle that little of human behavior is due to instinct, as most human behavior is a result of learning. This explains why learning is considered one of the most important fields of psychology. It then discusses the causes of slow learning, attributing them to the accumulation of learning difficulties during different school stages, and also refers to mental deficiencies and their physical characteristics.

In the second chapter, the topic of curricula for the slow-learning child is extensively covered, emphasizing the necessity of adapting these curricula to the child's needs and psychological state. To achieve this, therapeutic, preventive, and developmental aspects must be considered, stressing the importance of relying on the preventive and developmental approaches that align with the learner's actual abilities.

Finally, the book evaluates the learning methods for the slow-learning child, introducing the concept of assessment as a diagnostic, guiding, therapeutic, and educational process. Evaluation is carried out using subjective or collective criteria, exploring how to help the child solve problems arising from family circumstances and the school environment.
