Brown and black wrapper wit…h white lettering. 457 historical and informative pages! "Two other theoretico-experimental analyses of behavior compose the historical setting in which this book should be evaluated. Tolman's Purposive Behavior in Animals and Men preceded The Behavior of Organisms by six years; Hull's Principles of Behavior followed it by five. The three books differed in many ways: they undertook to solve different problems, and they sought solutions in different places. My debt to Sherrington, Magnus, and Pavlov is obvious in my continuing use of the word 'reflex.' I held to the term even after I had begun to distinguish between emitted and elicited behavior - between 'respondents' and 'operants' - for I wanted to preserve the notion of reflex strength." ---- from the Preface to the Seventh Printing.

Add to basketFirst edition of this foundational work of radical behaviourism. "Skinner's book was notable for its demonstrations of orderly functional relations between behaviour and environment as well as for its rejection of speculation about both the physiological mechanisms of behaviour and its possible mental causes. In effect, the book… established the behaviour of intact organisms as a lawful scientific domain in its own right, and it became the model of later research in the Skinnerian tradition" (ANB). This copy is one of 500 bound in the first issue cloth and with the Appleton "(1)" on the last page. A further 300 copies were bound in light green cloth and issued in the mid-1940s. Octavo. Diagrams throughout. Original black cloth, spine lettered and ruled in gilt, front cover blocked in blind. Bookplate of Californian psychologist Pearl G. Knapp (1901-1969) on front pastedown; annotations to contents. Cloth a little marked, bumps to extremities, short closed tear to fore edge of p. 21: a very good copy.
