The Pseudo-Science of B.F. Skinner was Professor Tibor Machan's
first book. Now, nearly forty years after its initial publication
and after three dozen additional books published by Machan, it is
available again through University Press of America. This study is
still alive with its initial inquiry into the work of B.F. Skinner,
and it is just as influential upon young students today as it was
forty years ago. Was Skinner a bona fide scientist or an amateur
metaphysician? Was Skinner correct to hold that only what can be
observed matters when it comes to understanding ourselves? Was he
correct that free will is fictional and morality is pre-scientific?
Professor Machan's fascinating inquiry into Skinner's radical
studies is a salute and a challenge to the corpus of his work.
