Review: Good but pithy - Very useful pure maths textbook to start your AS journey. Examples and exercises are well laid out but explanations can be a bit pithy. I've found myself scratching my head (and it's not the dandruff) figuring how they got to the next step in the solution, but ChatGPT does the trick in most cases. I think if you have support or are taught, this textbook is fine. Otherwise you may find it a bit too concise to get your head around the more complex algebraic manipulations. Just keep practicing. The Edexcel exam for pure maths (P1) lasts 2 hours and covers pretty much the entire curriculum, so be prepared to practice with past papers and sitting and concentrating for that time! Review: Useful - This book covers all pure maths topics for year 12 (AS-level) and the notes are clear and concise. There are lots of exam style questions and review exercises with answers at the back of the book which are helpful for practice. Recommended.

MUST GET!!
I use this ALL the time and as someone who for my GSCE's didnt like textbooks as revision this is great! Each page comes with 1)tutorial step-by-step on each topic 2) easy practice questions ranged to very difficult 3)exam style questions at end of each topic 4) hints/ tips on how to remember everything 5) (ONLY IF YOU BUY BRAND NEW) an online/digital version with more practice and video solutions Honestly I love this book so much this is like my maths holy bible. Without this i would not be able to pass it. If your child or you are considering doing maths A level please please get this book!!!

"Official" textbook
This is the official textbook for the Edexcel A Level maths published by Pearson who also produce the actual exam papers. It is well presented and written in easy-to-follow language. But if you pay the full price, it is very expensive. Sometimes available new for half-price or used but in very good condition, it is good value. The CGP equivalent is equally as good but cheaper than the full price for this book.

Beautifully laid out and perfectly in synch with the new A-level.
Having recently left a negative review for a new GCSE text book which was badly laid out, I thought I'd leave a positive review for this book, which I really like. My background: I'm a private tutor, and have been using the book daily now for around a month. The layout is so clear and easy to navigate (not too cluttered but still all the necessary information). There is some colour but not too much - I find this crucial to make it easy on the eye so you can concentrate on the actual maths. There are worked examples, and plenty of practice questions, labelled P if they are "Problem Solving" and E for "Exam Style". Each chapter has a paragraph at the start explaining why it is useful / real world applications. There are answers in the back and a couple of "exam-style practice papers". There are also 3 review exercises - after each block of 4, 5 or 6 chapters. There are notes in the margin with suggested investigations where Geogebra or other technology might come in useful - very useful for old dinosaurs like me who need to get to grips with the new A-level and associated use of technology. Altogether a great book, if I could give 6 stars I would.

Schlechtes Lehrbuch
Dieses Lehrbuch ist so fokussiert auf den Strategien um Lösungen von bestimmten Problemen zu finden, dass die Autoren das wichtigste der Mathematik, und zwar das "wieso" völlig vergessen haben. Dieses Buch steht dem Wachstum an mathematischem Wissen und Kreativität nur im Weg.
