Runkel links Perceptual Control Theory (PCT) thinking to psychological literature and discusses it against that background.
A professional book about the methods used to reach conclusions about the nature and behavior of humans argues that the method of specimens is more appropriate than the method of relative frequencies to discover how the human animal, as a species, functions.

Correspondence between William T. Powers, originator of Perceptual Control Theory, PCT, and Philip J. Runkel, professor of psychology and education at the University of Oregon. 500 pages of original letters show how Phil Runkel reevaluated everything he knew about psychology. This focused correspondence deals with the science (or lack thereof) and (inappropriate) methods used in psychology while introducing a new approach to a new natural science of psychology. Enclosures that go with the letters are available on the web.

Эрленд Лу (р. 1969) — популярный норвежский писатель, сценарист, режиссер театра и кино, лауреат ряда литературных премий. Роман «Наивно. Супер» — самая известная его книга, написанная от лица тридцатилетнего героя, переживающего «кризис середины жизни», — переведен уже на дюжину языков и везде, в том числе и в России, встречен с восторгом. Эта обаятельная и иронично-сдержанная вещь сродни хорошей примитивной, «наивной» живописи — на первый взгляд просто и смешно, всмотришься — умно и трогательно, и детали, при общей кажущейся простоте, выписаны точно и мастерски.
Naiv. Super. is a story, naively yet poignantly imagined, about a young Norwegian man who suddenly finds himself in a crisis. To discover what's going on--and to rediscover himself--he drops out of his studies at the university, sells most of his belongings, and moves into his brother's unoccupied apartment. Through contemplation and play, he sorts through life's meanings, tries to gain perspective on the world, revisits his lost childhood, and becomes obsessed with the concept of time. After several weeks, he joins his brother for a vacation in New York City, where, with his brother's help, he finds how best to live life. The side-column glossary and Norwegian-to-English dictionary compiled exclusively for this book make this edition of Loe's original text ideal for language learners and lovers of Norway and Norwegian culture.
