His analysis of human behavior culminated in his work Verbal Behavior which has recently seen enormous increase in interest experimentally and in applied settings. He discovered and advanced the rate of response as a dependent variable in psychological research. He invented the cumulative recorder to measure rate of responding as part of his highly influential work on schedules of reinforcement. In a recent survey Skinner was listed as the most influential psychologist of the 20th century. He was a prolific author publishing 21 books and 180 articles." GoodReads rating: 3.95 stars. From a 2012 review by Corey: "As a doctoral candidate in behavior analysis I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Skinner provides several gems throughout the text that I think I would have missed in my earlier days of studying radical behaviorism. In other words Skinner often says a lot in a few words. My favorite aspect of this book is Skinner's list of myths and misconceptions about behaviorism which he addresses throughout his writing. Unfortunately many of these myths and misconceptions are alive and well today. That being said I would not recommend this book to anyone as an introduction to behaviorism nor do I think this book alone will lead to a complete understanding of behaviorism. I think my appreciation of this book was fostered by years of studying behaviorism and I highly recommend it to anyone with a similar history.". First Edition so stated. Hardcover.
