This book follows the popular, "Huckleberry Days," The author's poetic presentation of the good old ways. Common sense is not so common you'll find. Lack of sense is a great resource to be mined. This poet points out where we go astray. Sometimes we get disaster when we get our way. The first chapter contains advice for the old. Some hate this word, but the alternative will leave you cold. Next are war stories about the greatest genertion. The author will always hold them in total veneration. There's some philosophy and complaints about modern life. Thoughts on religion, nature, and political strife. The male-female conflict is also treated. With some whimsy and humor the book is completed. The author is 76, a pretty old man. He's always had the drive of, "I think I can." Surprisingly, he has spent his whole life's career Doing what's incomprehensible. He was an engineer. To prove that old dogs can learn new tricks, He writes poetry which gives him kicks. He lives in Eastern Mass. with his bride of 54 years. For this he deserves some kudos and four cheers.

The psychology classic—a detailed study of scientific theories of human nature and the possible ways in which human behavior can be predicted and controlled—from one of the most influential behaviorists of the twentieth century and the author of Walden Two. “This is an important book, exceptionally well written, and logically consistent with the basic premise of the unitary nature of science. Many students of society and culture would take violent issue with most of the things that Skinner has to say, but even those who disagree most will find this a stimulating book.” —Samuel M. Strong, The American Journal of Sociology “This is a remarkable book—remarkable in that it presents a strong, consistent, and all but exhaustive case for a natural science of human behavior…It ought to be…valuable for those whose preferences lie with, as well as those whose preferences stand against, a behavioristic approach to human activity.” —Harry Prosch, Ethics

This is not a hoax. Jim Theis was a real person, who wrote The Eye of Argon in all seriousness as a teenager, and published it in a fanzine, Osfan in 1970. But the story did not pass into the oblivion that awaits most amateur fiction. Instead, a miracle happened, and transcribed and photocopied texts began to circulate in science fiction circles, gaining a wide and incredulous audience among both professionals and fans. It became the ultimate samizdat, an underground classic, and for more than thirty years it has been the subject of midnight readings at conventions, as thousands have come to appreciate the negative genius of this amazing Ed Wood of prose.
