Evolution and contextual-behavioral science. Wilson D.S., Hayes S.S.

Theory of evolution and contextual-behavioral science over the past half a century have developed almost independently of each other. However, in the early stages of their development, these two theories were closely intertwined on one another. The theory of evolution creates a unifying scientific structure for biological disciplines and is increasingly used in the sciences of a person. On the other hand, contextual-behavioral science is aimed at changing human behavior in a practical sense. This revolutionary book is devoted to the unification of the theory of evolution and contextual behavioral science to realize the life of people. This book reflects the original point of view on the history of the theory of evolution and contextual-behavioral science, their internal connection is demonstrated and the naturalness of their unification is emphasized, or rather, reunion. Studying the achievements of both scientific schools, readers realize that the combination of functional and contextual approaches in behavioral sciences and the theory of evolution allows them to achieve success faster. In addition to identifying the logical connections existing between the theory of evolution and contextual-behavioral science, readers learn how an integrated approach to these scientific theories lays more reliable foundations for understanding, forecasting and changing human behavior.
