Title: Don't Shoot Yourself - You'll Want to After Reading this Book!
Review: This book is great if you want to train animals. It cannot do anything - ANYTHING - other than that. Behaviorism is lifeless and stifling, and causes just as many problems as it "solves." Pryor, a Skinner disciple, agrees with his philosophy that we have nothing to do with our actions. She states that our own creativity is actually a factor of reinforcement by others or the environment. That's not really creativity, if you think about it. This book disgusted me, especially when Pryor started her lifeless rampage that we are "evolved social animals," which may explain why she equates human behavior with animal behavior. She even goes so far to say that sex is a "mutual exchange of positive reinforcers."
