This well-preserved copy of “Modification of Child Behaviour” by Garth J. Blackman and colleagues offers a fascinating glimpse into the early days of applied behavior analysis and its application to child development. Published in the 1970s, this volume reflects the growing interest in using principles of operant conditioning to address behavioral challenges in children. While some of the techniques may seem outdated today, the book’s historical significance lies in its pioneering approach to understanding and shaping child behavior through systematic observation and reinforcement strategies. Collectors of psychology literature and those interested in the evolution of behavioral interventions will appreciate this artifact from a pivotal era in the field. Despite its ex-library status, the clean pages and secure binding make this an excellent reading copy for exploring the roots of modern behavior modification techniques.
