Try:

_Galileo's Commandment An Anthology of Great Science Writing_
New York: W.H.Freeman & Co. May 1997 450 pages

A scathing criticism of behaviourism by Chomsky is in there. Whether this
is specifically his criticism of Skinner's "Verbal Behaviour", I don't
know. Go to a Border's or Barnes & Noble and take a look.
