Canadian publisher set to release book by noted behaviorologist

BehaveTech Publishing of Ottawa, Canada, has announced the release of the book, Running Out of Time—Introducing Behaviorology to Help Solve Global Problems, by Stephen Ledoux, in early February 2014. The cover of this 600–page, 24–chapter book points out that “Behaviorology is the natural science of WHY human behavior happens, a natural science to help build a sustainable society in a timely manner.” The book is written for anyone concerned about environmental issues and human survival. After the first chapter provides an historical overview, the remaining 23 chapters address the principles, methods, concepts, and practices of behaviorology, along with some scientific answers to some long–standing human questions (e.g., questions about values, rights, ethics, morals, language, consciousness, personhood, life, death, and reality) while continually pointing to interconnections with solutions to global problems. The book also contains an extensive glossary, bibliography, and index. Copies can be purchased through local bookstores or ordered from the main distributor, Direct Book Service, Inc., at 800–776–2665. (They will likely answer the phone with “Dogwise,” because their most popular specialty involves books about our canine friends; several of these books already specifically apply the laws of behavior that Running Out of Time… systematically introduces.) TIBI will have this book available for $60—the list price is $63—at its May 2014 Canton convention along with CDs for $10—the list price is $12—of the public–radio interview with the organizers (Lawrence Fraley, Stephen Ledoux, Ernie Vargas, and Julie Vargas) of the first behaviorology convention that was held ten miles from Canton, in Potsdam NY, in 1988.
