need general article by Skinner

greenspun.com : LUSENET : History & Theory of Psychology : One Thread

I need an article-length or chapter-length piece written by Skinner to use as one of the supplementary readings in my History of Psychology course. Can anyone suggest an article in which he "summarizes" his more important positions?
