"My son has just started this course and has been asking me for help with his homework. Having forgotten most of the chemistry I ever learned, I was looking for something concise so I could mug up on the subject rapidly. This book is ideal and even better it shows exactly what examiners are looking for. " "I bought the Biology book along with this and they are both really good! They give me all the information that I need.!"More details
