Announcing a new Myers/DeWall text, created specifically for the Fall 2019 AP® course framework!


You are likely familiar with the name Dr. David G. Myers. Now, he and his new co-author, Nathan DeWall, bring you a book that will allow you to use College Board’s new Personal Progress Checks and Dashboard more effectively.


This updated edition includes 100% of the new course content in the new nine-unit structure. All teacher and student resources will also be updated to correlate to the new student edition; this includes the TE, TRFD, TB, Strive, and LaunchPad. Everything will publish in summer 2020 such that you can use this new program for Fall 2020 classes.


If you’re not familiar with Myers/DeWall texts, you are in for a treat! Drs. Myers and DeWall share a passion for the teaching of psychological science through wit, humor, and the telling of poignant personal stories (individually identified in the text by the use of each author’s initials [ DM and ND]). Through close collaboration, these authors produce a unified voice that will teach, illuminate, and inspire your AP® students.
