Summary: Perfect
Comment: Most of psychology is easy to avoid, since its is as close to science as Dr Suess. While Skinner can feel like he is going off on a tangent now and then, is analysis is on the mark. Some people argue that he tried to reduce things to much - maybe these people feel that Skinner is hurting their Ego. While I could try to tell you that you should read the book and judge for yourself, I have to remember that you have no choice. You will or you wont read it, not because of your "free will" but because of your history of reinforcement.

Rating: 4
Summary: Encyclopedic guide to schedules of reinforcement
Comment: This book is amazing. It was at the time, and likely still is the most comprehensive and detailed research into schedules of reinforcement ever done. The detail and the jargon make it hard going in places, and the almost fanatic obsession with quantizing everything is a little aversive. Nevertheless, if you persist in gleaning the main ideas from this book, and convince yourself of their importance and correctness, using the detail, you will be richly rewarded with a completely new understanding of the wonderful research that behaviorists have performed, and the sometimes startling results. Highly recommended even for persons with only slight familiarity with behaviorism.
