Description
Feeling hot, hot, hot? Cool off with these refreshing topics! The Summer of Book Club comes to a close with our unlocked Walden Two discussion. Then we bring our beach party to a close just in time for a good, old-fashioned Grab Bag and our summer Listener Choice all about measuring quality of ABA as a service. Put them all together and do we find ourselves in a behavior analytic utopia or a dystopia?
