  abstract: The approach taken in this volume suggests that the science of behavior (often called behavior analysis and sometimes behaviorology) has much more to offer for reducing human problems than is widely recognized. In this volume, the editors and authors hope to show that the science of behavior has much to offer to contemporary society, beyond its usefulness in narrow niches like special education and developmental disabilities.
