Morris wrote that "Skinner is both elegant and admirable (Morris, 1958, p. 213.) Both predicted a promising future for the book and such did turn out to be the case. Over more than half a century after its initial publication in 1957, "Verbal Behavior" has remained in demand and continues to be relevant. The documented efficacy of Skinner's practices, especially with autism, has assured its relevance. His functional analysis of language continues to inform contemporary research in the field of linguistics.

Autorenporträt
B.F. Skinner (20 de marzo de 1904 en Susquehanna, Pensilvania, Estados Unidos, 18 de agosto de 1990 en Cambridge, Massachusetts), psicólogo estadounidense y el más influyente exponente del conductismo, que considera la conducta como función de variables que pueden encontrarse en el ambiente físico y social, y público y privado del individuo. Skinner se dedicó a la psicología atraído por los trabajos del fisiólogo ruso I. P. Pavlov sobre reflejos condicionados. Tras doctorarse en la Universidad de Harvard (1931), permaneció allí como investigador hasta 1936, luego trabajaría para la Universidad de Minnesota y la Universidad de Indiana, volviendo definitivamente a Harvard en 1948. Sus obras más influyentes son La conducta de los organismos (1938), Ciencia y conducta humana (1953) y Conducta verbal (1957). Además de su trabajo experimental, Skinner es reconocido por extrapolar elegantemente los procesos de condicionamiento a la conducta humana compleja.
