This post promotes _Your Behavior_ – a book which highlights PCT in a way that “provides a great scientific context for introducing Perceptual Control Theory to the layperson” according to Warren Mansell on the back cover.

I tried to reply simply 👍 but Discourse doesn’t accept such short posts. Has to be at least 5 characters.

You could think of these as blurbs such as appear on dust jackets. A blurb writer (or the effective editor) often makes ‘adjustments’ to quotations for compactness & loss of context, so likewise you don’t have to be absolutely faithful to what you wrote in the book.
