Hardback : HK$1,374.00
This volume goes beyond theory and gives the empirical and conceptual tools to conduct an experimental analysis of virtually every substantive topic in human language and cognition, both basic and applied. It challenges behavioral psychology to abandon many of the specific theoretical formulations of its most prominent historical leader in the domain of complex human behavior, especially in human language and cognition, and approach the field from a new direction. It will be of interest to behavior theorists, cognitive psychologists, therapists, and educators.

"A remarkably brilliant book that integrates some of the main
theories of radical behaviorism with cognitive behavioral theories
and practices of psychotherapy. This book gives more plausible
explanations of why people behave the way that they do, and
particularly why they are frequently dysfunctional, than any other
I can think of."
(Albert Ellis, Albert Ellis Institute, New York)
"[An] exciting and innovative book. It indicates that a behavioural
account can shed light on many more of the complexities of language
and cognition than had previously been supposed... it is abundantly
clear from this book that the behavioural approach is alive and
kicking, and full of vitality."
(W. Eysenck, Royal Holloway University of London)
"This is a truly remarkable book... If Chomsky had seen this work
40 years ago, the history of psychology could have been very
different."
(Paul M. Smeets, Leiden University, The Netherlands)
"The book is certainly a tour de force and clearly merits a much
wider readership among those interested in empirical and
theoretical issues in language and cognition."
(Contemporary Psychology, APA Review of Books, 48:4 (2003)
