Abstract

The book About Behaviorism is complete in 2024, 50 years since its launch in 1974. One of the reasons Skinner considers it pertinent to write this text was the increasing circula­tion, whether in the press, in scientific articles, or in frequent scientific debates. in scientific congresses, of the assumptions and principles then accumulated regarding Skinnerian be­haviorism. About Behaviorism is a kind of summary of the main themes, especially from an ethical perspective of B. F. Skinner’s proposals, not only applicable to individual behavior, but to the possibility of formulating cultural delineations. From this introductory chapter to the end of the examination of the main theoretical debates, the reader can consider being faced with a commemorative revision edition of About under the opinion of representative authors of Behavior Analysis.
