Excellent resource. The explanations are clear, the bonus material interesting and the answers provided in the back of the book a life saver. Plenty of questions means that you can both check your progress and practise enough to make sure that the information settles in your mind. This is the best Physics book I have come across. Highly recommended. Student review, Amazon I loved this book... The book is very factual and has every possible topic that could come up in the exam, it's colourful enough to keep your attention, while still keeping the content at a high quality... It's gotten me from an A to an A*, and if utilised properly, I have no doubt it will be able to get anyone to at least an A grade. Student review, Amazon
