I received the following email from Lauren Slater this morning.  I thought her defense of reiterating a myth "for the purpose of dismantling it" was exactly the closure we needed for the Skinner chapter.

Beth;

I've been following the tips on line discussion group of my book, OPENING SKINNER'S BOX, and I want to thank you for supporting it, but more importantly for understanding that the Skinner chapter contains the reiteration of a myth for the purposes of dismantling it.

So, thanks again.

Lauren Slater

Can you say 'disingenuous'?

If Laura Slater is in fact a psychologist, she should know that the chapter on Skinner would most likely have the effect of perpetuating the myth.
