5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, easy to use colouful textbook, 14 Sep 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: New Understanding Computer Science for Advanced Level Fourth Edition (Paperback)

This is a very good textbook, that has superceded his previous edition. It is much better, as the pages are better quality, there is colour on every page, and there are no longer any annoying 'cartoons.' This might have well have been a completely different book, as the set out is a 200% on the third edition. The text has not just been cut and pasted from the old edition, but the text is fresh and has up to date information about the recent advances in Computer Science. This book is definitely worth a look, and would be of great use to GCSE, A-Level, and Undergraduates as a study aid. It would even be of use for novices to the computer world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive text for those in many areas of education., 26 Oct 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: New Understanding Computer Science for Advanced Level Fourth Edition (Paperback)

This book contains comprehensive text for students studying Advanced Level, City in Guilds, BTEC,British Computer Society courses and also those doing PGCE ICT. It is however a little heavy going to read form cover to cover and although contains invaluable information can often feel a little heavy going. For those in such a situation I recommend that you also consult A Glossary of Computing Terms by the British Computer Society. Together these two books will improve your knowledge, skills and understanding of ICT.

4.0 out of 5 stars A large yet informative text book, 25 Oct 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: New Understanding Computer Science for Advanced Level Fourth Edition (Paperback)

This book contains comprehensive text for anyone who is doing an Advanced Level, City and Guilds, BTEC,British Computer Society OR even PGCE ICT courses and examinations. It is however a little heaving going if one is trying to read it from cover to cover. The information is brilliant but a little hard to digest in large chunks. If anyone else is finding this book heaving going I recommend that you also buy the BCS Glossary Of Terms to support your readings as it is a little smaller and more digestable.

2.0 out of 5 stars Complete but frustrating, wooly and badly organised.

This book is very thick and very technical.

Bradley's writing is excellent, however he does have a tendency to hop around a point without actually saying it. Read more
