I found this book to be too technical and dry for the average undergraduate. It contained in rank that seemed both relevent and useless to the consumer. For instance, the chapters clarified a mild version of the topic of discussion, then, went into detail on that topic later on. Instead of breaking the topics up so much it would be preferrable to read it all at once. I read the book numerous times, and still had some problems comprehending the exact meanings of many of the subjects. Learning and Behavior was more technical than the average undergraduate can learn, or should be tested on.

This text is much too complex for even an advanced undergraduate student. I found the chapters to be poorly organized, repetitious and over emphatical on small points, and vague on many vital points. For a reader who has a excellent deal of previous exposure to behavior psychology, this may be a excellent text. For the majority of readers using this as a text to obtain an undergraduate degree without an emphisis on behavior, it is not. It seems to require quite a bit of previous exposure to behaviorist theories that most readers I have encountered do not have.

I have taught from this book in New Zealand and America. If your students are used to being spoon fed they may radical at its complexity — but if they are given proper guidance it will be helpful first introduction and enduringly helpful text for them. If you are graduating students with degrees in psychology and they cannot comprehend this book — then their degree is not worth the paper it is printed on.
