The syllabus for A Level Physics can seem dauntingly large but Roger Muncaster has managed to cover it in most clear and readable way. The text covers the traditional topics of the major syllabuses and the newer topics which are being introduced. The book is divided into seven sections, at the end of each section there are numerous questions from past examination papers.
