Classic and Revolutionary Insights

BF Skinner is often criticized and dismissed for his radical behaviorism. however his insights are profoundly important and the criticisms around his dismissal of the internal workings of the brain are in my view unjustified. This classic work deserves the attention of everyone seriously thinking about how to improve the state of the world and the impact of humanity upon it, and the human condition itself. His work has been incredibly beneficial to education especially those with autism and special Educational Needs. these benefits can be broadened to wider society if more people pay Close attention to this actually quite easy to read (or listen to) work.
