The volume was derived from three MacEachran Lectures held at the University of Alberta and presents: * a historical-theoretical analysis of the origins of the modern cognitivist approach * a critical examination of the major premises on which the modern cognitivist approach is based * a study of the intellectual tensions that exist between recent versions of cognitive structuralism as they apply to humans and animals, and the various forms of behaviorism.Amsel, Abram is the author of 'Behaviorism, Neobehaviorism, and Cognitivism in Learning Theory: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives (Distinguished Lecture Series)', published 1988 under ISBN 9780805803327 and ISBN 0805803327.
