Abstract:
This paper introduces the nature and practice of bibliography (e.g.,
definition, history, and genres); it reviews the extant B. E Skinner
bibliographies (1958 to 2001); and it describes the methods used in
constructing a new, comprehensive, and corrected bibliography of Skinner's
primary-source published works. The bibliography includes 291 items from
across 16 categories of publications (e.g., books, articles, chapters,
monographs, book reviews, manuals, encyclopedia entries, letters to the
editor) and lists them in chronological order (1930 to 1999). A discussion
section addresses the bibliography's limitations, how it might be enlarged
and expanded, its value for qualitative and quantitative historical
inquiry, and the beginnings of a "Skinner industry.".
