This textbook is a clearly written guide to the new AS Biology course which covers all of the syllabus in detail.Each section (Foundation, Transport and Human Health and Disease) is easy to understand and the text is supported by ample diagrams and interesting colour photographs. I think this textbook has got to be the key to success at AS Biology!

This book is a must have for all those who are coming from an OCR double or triple award to As Biology. Even if this isn't your board, i highly recommend it if you want a book with clear defined explanations with lots of explained diagrams. However, this book lacks end of topic questions, so if you want a book with questions rather than a text book of explanation then look elsewhere.

Although this is not a particularly "good" book as all the OCR textbooks (Biol and Chem) leave big gaps in your knowledge, it is essential to get an A in the three modules it covers. So if you really are interested in the subject read around it and buy other books to complement this book. Having said this if you were able to recall this book word for word there is NOTHING you couldn't answer on the exam papers.
