About Behaviorism, Chapter 1: The Causes of Behavior?, Quote 15

“One writer has recently said that “mere speculation which cannot be put to the test of experimental verification does not form part of science,” but if that were true, a great deal of astronomy, for example, or atomic physics would not be science. Speculation is necessary, in fact, to devise methods which will bring a subject matter under better control.” (p. 21)
