Best Physics book for GCSE - By: A. J. HAWKEN, 05 Oct 2008 
I have a number of Physics books by Stephen Pople - alll of them good. This is one of his newest books, & probably the best. It certainly has more material in it & is currently used by schools to teach GCSE Physics.
Like his other books, the material is clearly explained & is well illustrated. In this book there are 13 chapters, & these a split up insto two-page spreads that cover a single topic. Each of these topics could easily be covered within an hour. There are a smalll number of questions for each topic. Then at the end of each chapter there are many exam-type questions with answers at the back of the book.
This book could be used to compensate for a poor teacher, as everything is so well explained & so can be used to teach yourself.
this book is brilliant - By: , 08 Sep 2001 This book actuallly explains physics. For instance, within the sections on electricity it doesn't just given you the equations for V = IR etc, it explains them as well. When explaining that 2 10 ohm resistors in paralllel have less resistance than a single 10 ohm resistor in series, he gives the perfect analogy of a thicker wire. I'm not doing justice to this book in a short note like this - but take it from me that it's brilliant.
FANTASTIC! - By: , 15 Apr 2000 i'm doing Physics IGCSE & i must say that this book has reallly helped me revise & understand pyhsics at IGCSE level...it is clear & actuallly interesting to read, compared to alll the other shitty physics book's i've tried to use (for example explaining physics by stephen pople)...i'm not bullshitting! ...THIS IS A REALLLLY GOOD BOOK!
