5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Professional In Applied Settings
Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2014

Virtually all Behavior analyst need to read Cooper, Heron & Heward's Applied Behavior Analysis during their course work. But when you are done and ready to work this is an excellent book to add to your bookshelf. In Applied Settings you will come up against respondent behavior and cognitive behavioral techniques which enter your world of work and this book is expansive enough to help you think about how these fit into your practice and will offer some ways to think about them.
This book may seem difficult to those outside the field, but compared to Cooper et. al. it is pure poetry. I really enjoy the author's tone and style. It does not sacrifice any rigor either.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good as a Textbook but not for the Casual Reader
Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2002
This was our textbook for the Psychology of Behavior Modification. While I feel it was invaluable for the classroom setting, there are better books out there to explain what exactly B-Mod is to the layman.
Kazdin uses the state-of-the-art B-mod lingo. The only thing he never made clear enough was his comparisons of positive/negative reinforcement and positive/negative punishment. This section had to be clarified by our instructor, who himself said that Kazdin confused him, and our instructor is a behaviorist.
The text contains many chart and graph illustrations that help you to understand the progress of the interventions explained in the text. However, I felt that there were too few intervention examples in the book, and the actual nuts-and-bolts "how-to" of a behavioral intervention were never given. Our instructor had to break that down for us.
All in all, it's the best of a sad lot of B-mod texts out there, but if you aren't a psychologist or a psych student, you'll find this one a tough read.
