What is included with this book?
This modules-based version of Myers’ Exploring Psychology breaks down the book’s 15 chapters into 43 short modules. Myers was inspired to create this text by the memory research in “chunking” (showing that shorter reading assignments are more effectively absorbed than longer ones), as well as by numerous students and instructors who expressed a strong preference for textbooks with more, shorter chapters. Each self-standing module can be read in a single sitting, and instructors can assign any combination of modules, in any order they want.
DSM 5 UpdatesAvailable for Fall 2014 classes, this update version features new content from David Myers in response to the release of the DSM-5. This new content is integrated into the text without changing pagination or the structure of the chapters. A special DSM 5 Supplement by the David Myers is available for Fall 2013 and Spring and Summer 2014 courses.
