Response to Who is Carl J warden?

A search of the web (on Yahoo!) reveals that he wasa comparative psychologist who wrote the books:

Warden, Carl J. Evolution of Human Behavior. NY: Macmillan Publishing Co., 1932, 248p. (available at www.scholarlybooks.com)

Warden, Carl J. The Emergence of Human Society (1936) (reviewed by Erich Fromm -- see http://www.nypl.org/research/chss/spe/rbk/faids/Fromm/frommpart4.html)

If you're not up for a whole book, you might check out his article:

Carl J. Warden, "The Historical Development of Comparative Psychology," in Psychological Review, Vol. 34 (1927), 57-85 and 135-168, an introductory survey which has a bibliography from the Greeks to behaviorism (taken from http://www.human-nature.com/rmyoung/papers/paper59h.html)
