The url that Don gave: http://www.psychologicalscience.org/observer/getArticle.cfm?id=1546 does work, but wrapping made it difficult to use. Try this instead: http://tinyurl.com/yp7nno When you go there, you find that the answer is that Myers' $1M donation did come from royalties from his books. It's to be used "to enhance the teaching and public understanding of psychological science". An impressive gesture. Wouldn't it be nice if it caught on with other authors?
