B.F. SKINNER FROM A TO Z. (BOOK REVIEW)

REVIEW OF BOOKS ON MADNESS, MOTIVATION, MOTHERS AND MORE

Probably no psychologist's views are so routinely misunderstood as those of "Mr. Behaviorist," B.E Skinner. Skinner did not say, for example, that people don't think; instead, he said, "Human thought is human behavior." Were people to read Skinner's words rather than those of his critics, they might often be surprised to find themselves agreeing with him. This little book of Skinner excerpts, with commentaries by author Joe Wyatt, Ph.D., professor of psychology at Marshall University in West Virginia, offers us the opportunity to do just that.
