Can evolution provide perfectly optimal solutions for a universal model of reading?

Christina Behme. Behav Brain Sci. 2012 Oct.

Abstract

Frost has given us good reason to question the universality of existing computational models of reading. Yet, he has not provided arguments showing that all languages share fundamental and invariant reading universals. His goal of outlining the blueprint principles for a universal model of reading is premature. Further, it is questionable whether natural evolution can provide the optimal solutions that Frost invokes.
