Heh, the student can't find B. F. Skinner in the text? He (B. F., that is) must have fallen farther from grace than we had thought, if he receives such minor attention. Lenore, I would simply email the student back and point out that all of the terms can be found in the index (including page numbers!). I certainly would not look up the page numbers myself.
