2. Behaviorist
Behaviorists are people who believe in behaviorism. Behaviorism is a philosophical theory which believes that mental states can be analyzed in terms of publicly observable actions; in other words, behavior can be described and explained without reference to mental events or psychological processes. This school of thought tends to emphasize the external sources of behavior and dismiss the internal sources (the mind). The mind hence has no independent significance.

The Norman Conquest of England
The Norman conquest of England (1066) was a pivotal event in English history. It began with the invasion of England by William, Duke of Normandy. The Norman conquest largely removed the native ruling class, replacing it with a foreign, French-speaking monarchy, aristocracy and clerical hierarchy. It linked England more closely with Continental Europe and created one of the most powerful monarchies in Europe. It also changed the English language and culture.

Why Study History?
Charles Darwin
Charles Darwin (1809–1882) was an English naturalist and writer, best known as the originator of the theory of biological evolution by natural selection. In 1831, he joined a five year scientific expedition on the survey ship HMS Beagle. When he returned to England in 1936, he tried to solve the riddles of his observation, proposing a theory of evolution. He worked on his theory for 20 years. After learning that Alfred Russel Wallace had developed similar ideas, he made a joint announcement with Wallace of their discovery in 1858. In 1859 Darwin published On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection.
