It will put Fred Skinner back in the pantheon and, providing context, serve as an excellent introduction to the content and central truths in radical behaviorism. Needless to say, I'm also grateful to have my work following Sociobiology given proper attention.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-\u003cstrong\u003eDavid Sloan Wilson\u003c\/strong\u003e, author of Darwin’s Cathedral writes: \"E.O. Wilson and B.F. Skinner agreed that the human capacity for change is both a product of genetic evolution and an evolutionary process in its own right. Yet, the paradigms of sociobiology and radical behaviorism went in very different directions. Paul Naour's insightful analysis of a taped conversation between Wilson and Skinner goes beyond the historical significance of the conversation and helps to integrate the two paradigms for the future.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-\u003cstrong\u003eCarl Haywood\u003c\/strong\u003e writes: \"The present question is whether evolution by natural selection is a useful set of concepts for the development of psychology.  Naour’s proposed confluence of radical behaviorism and sociobiology suggests not only that it is, but also that radical behaviorism shares with sociobiology a debt and an allegiance to Darwinism.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2009-03-19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387894614\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-0-387-89462-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 138\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50091334140044,"sku":"9780387894614","price":215.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387894614.jpg?v=1779508276","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780387894614","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
