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.

The book summarizes nearly ten years of research, spanning the years of Skinner's graduate school days at H…arvard through his three years as a member of the Society of Fellows. Here he defines his basic unit of behavior, the operant, proposes rate as the basic datum, and describes his research program-to identify the variables of which behavior is a function." - B.F. Skinner Foundation. ix, [1], 457 pages. References. Index.
