good book for people with capacity to single out things

I have nothing to do with psichology ( I am an MBA with strong business background, yes, some MBAs know squad about business). But after listening to this useless debate (behaviorists, freudians and the like)for so many times in my life I decided to study each one of them. This book has achieved its goal for me. To tell me what the heck Skinner was up to. I liked his ideas, ideals and theories, although some are quite strange and not quite possible to be real. If Skinner was a genious as ALL of his followers claim that's fine with me, but he wasn't perfect, and in many passages of the book readers will be able to pin point some madness.Great book overall, just go easy with all you read in there.
