...worked. His railings against Washington bureaucrats, wealthy tax chiselers and crime in the streets had become respectable-but were being pre-empted by more respectable candidates. Carter asked Southern audiences: "Why send a message when you can send a President?" Wallace, who knows but will never admit that he cannot reach the Oval Office, began to lash out with some of his old meanness...

...nation. Opposing Bailey was U.S. Attorney James L. Browning Jr., who said his aim "was to try to neutralize the psychiatric testimony and to try the case basically on the facts" (see box page 24). In acrimonious duels with Bailey, Browning won important victories by getting Judge Carter to admit the tapes from Tania, as well as some of her papers that were confiscated at the Harrises' apartment.

...which backtracks to follow the thread of psychological curiosity through his life is an exception.) But Skinner has a purpose for the resulting "and then" paratactical tedium of his style. Even his detractors laud his achievements in the development of teaching machines and in animal training, and grudgingly admit the success of behavior modification with autistic children and the mentally ill.
