Edited by David Sloan Wilson and Steven C. Hayes, this groundbreaking book offers a glimpse into the histories of these two schools of thought, and provides a sound rationale for their reintegration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvolutionary science (ES) provides a unifying theoretical framework for the biological sciences, and is increasingly being applied to the human-related sciences. Meanwhile, contextual behavioral science (CBS) seeks to understand the history and function of human behavior in the context of everyday life where behaviors occur, and to \u003ci\u003einfluence \u003c\/i\u003ebehavior in a practical sense. This volume seeks to integrate these two bodies of knowledge that have developed largely independently.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eEvolution and Contextual Behavioral Science\u003c\/i\u003e, two renowned experts in their fields argue why ES and CBS are intrinsically linked, as well as why their reintegration--or, \u003ci\u003ereunification\u003c\/i\u003e--is essential. The main purpose of this book is to continue to move CBS under the umbrella of ES, and to help evolutionary scientists understand how working alongside contextual behavioral scientists can foster both the development of ES principles and their application to practical situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRather than the sequential relationship that is typically imagined between these two schools of thought, this volume envisions a parallel relationship between ES and CBS, where science can best influence positive change in the real world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Sloan Wilson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1626259135\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781626259133\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Context Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 7.00w x 0.90d","brand":"David Sloan Wilson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43991740776703,"sku":"9781626259133","price":69.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fd7ee544-5ac1-461b-a702-1d39db59b8e7.jpg?v=1683311957","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/evolution-and-contextual-behavioral-science-david-sloan-wilson-9781626259133","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
