Synopsis

This book is the outcome of interviews with the radical behaviourists B.E Skinner and R.H. Wheeler where these among other questions were posed: What is the nature of personkind? How do persons learn? How does one account for individual differences? How do persons remember? How can learning be assessed? In the years since the original interviews, the writers have re-engaged themselves in the discussion and, in a series of footnotes; and react to the ideas of Skinner and Wheeler from an increasingly contemporary perspective.
