This student book for the new AQA AS specification in chemistry starting in September 2008 is 'student-friendly', setting out the chapters in an order that mimics the specification and presenting the information in double-page spreads.
The book is attractively illustrated with clear diagrams and colour photographs. A circular icon identifies the 'How science works' sections that are integrated throughout the book (as the specification intends this new component to be). For each double-page spread, what should already be known by the student is briefly described prior to the objectives for that particular spread.
