This sin't the one from the Yale site, but it's a really good article by Shaywitz onthe topic of dyslexia. The level of language is very much aimed at people who do not have a lot of prior knowledge - such as parents, education students, and teachers taking reading endorsement classes.
The article has the same brain pictures Dr. Neslin has shown in class, as well as lists of signs to look for. The scientific basis for accomodations is explained - which I've never seen. All in all, it's a very informative piece.
