Description
The second edition of this popular series brings all the texts right up to date with the requirements of the new (2004) AS/A2 Modular Mathematics syllabus from Edexcel. The compulsory AS pure modules (C1 and C2) are now in a single handy volume, for ease and flexibility of teaching, as are the A2 pure maths modules (C3 and C4). There are also text books covering Statistics 1, Statistics 2, Mechanics 1 and Mechanics 2. The books offer a user-friendly approach, setting mathematical problems in a meaningful context. The worked examples take students through all the content at a steady pace, ensuring complete and full understanding of all the concepts needed. Key points are included for every chapter, to aid revision. There are also plenty of questions, and even more recent exam questions have been added to this second edition.
