This is a great book. It is very clear and helpful with lots and lots of worked examples and good diagrams. I find it easier to understand than my teacher. The sections on Revision and exam techniques are good too. I feel a lot surer about Physics now.

A well rounded physics book for advanced level and also an attractive book. Some physics books are a little daunting on the eyes (especially the non-colour ones)and some books are overtly splattered in luminous colours eventually throwing you off as you admire the pretty colours....but this book, well it was just right. Although the information context and layout is a very important feature of any text book, I feel that the way a book is illustrated and displayed is important too and this book has perfect combination of colour, contrast, consistency and most importantly easy to undersatnd physical complexity.

I have just started AS Physics (AQA B), and already this book has been massively useful.
The book actually came from my girlfriend, who had just finished AS Physics, and was not carying it on. I read various bits of it, out of interest, over the summer, and was amazed at how much it prepared me for the course!
As has been mentioned in previous reviews, the diagrams make a nice comprimise between being easy on the eye and understandable, while not being too distracting. There is a slight comic feel to some of the exemples, as the same 'person' (a cartoon character called Fizz) is used for all of the examples.
I can't give personal feedback on what it's like to revise from (although my aforementioned girlfriend went from a predicted E to a solid C with this book), but I would definitely advise this book to anyone studying AS/A2 physics!
Oh, and the tick-boxes in the back are very useful. They tell you exactly which parts (quoted as pages in the book) are needed for each year of each exam board - you'd be surprised at the differences!!
