vii, 388 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. This innovative paperback text is an unusually clear and succinct intro- duction to animal learning its principles, methods, human applica- tions, and limitations. It provides the untrained student with the basics of Pavlovian and operant conditioning. But the authors go well beyond this. Weaving everyday examples and analogies into their presentation, Professors Schwartz and Lacey focus on the major discoveries and essential studies that have led to changes in the field. In addition, the authors bring a critical perspective to these findings, showing the student where they do and do not hold up. Unlike other brief introduc- tory texts in learning. Behaviorism, Science, and Human Nature con- tains a full chapter on human applications and another on the limitations of the field. This contemporary text is ideal for instructors who include animal learning as part of their undergraduate course in learning, general psychology, behavior modification, or psychology of education.
