In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Good. First Edition. In this, Skinner's first book, he "launched a new science based on selection by consequences as the mechanism through which behavior changes during the lifetime of the individual. The book summarizes nearly ten years of research, spanning the years of Skinner's graduate school days at Harvard 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. Name of Arthur Gladstone stamped atop front free endpaper is presumably that of the Swarthmore College professor who edited the 'Bulletin of the Research Exchange on the Prevention of War' in the 1950s. Ink marginal lines and/or marginalia on approximately 23 pages appear recent. Dust jacket not included. Moderate wear to original black cloth. Bright gilt lettering upon backstrip.
