Trade ReviewI like the book. It has very clear structure, everything is nicely in sections and boxes with good illustrations. It assumes little knowledge and will be accessible to most readers while covering advanced topics as well. Adam Prada, University of Cambridge
The text covers many of the areas that I have had problems with at A-level and at university level, making it very useful to students in the transition between the two. * Felix Rummel, University of Manchester *
The comments and worked examples are fantastic and make the book particularly useful. As a student you can never have enough worked examples or questions to try so a workbook is a great way to enhance what you are given in your course. * Rebecca Snelgrove, Keele University *
I wish I had these books when I started at university. So many relevant examples are worked through, and the solutions to the examples are descriptive instead of just being a simple answer, which makes learning much easier. * Michelle Rasmussen, University of Roskilde *
Having lots of examples to work through really helps you cement your learning, and is fantastic preparation for exams and further studies. * Adam Stubbs, Newcastle University *
If only this book had existed during my first year, it would have made the task of studying so much easier! The workbook provides a blended balance between detail and simplicity, in a way that other books fail to match. * Matthew-John Tully, University of Bangor *
