by Garrett Nagle and Kris Spencer

Published January 1998
This text is part of the "Oxford Revision Guides" series. These are reissues of the two series "GCSE Revise Through Diagrams" and "Advanced Revision Handbooks", now combined with newly branded covers. The GCSE titles have extra 16-page sections on revision techniques and sample questions for the new GCSE syllabuses, first examined in June 1998. The A-level titles just have new covers, but will be revised in 1999 for the new A-level syllabuses. This book covers the A-level geography syllabus and uses diagrams and concise notes to help students revise.

Endorsed by Edexcel, this book provides full coverage of all core and option units for Edexcel AS and A Level Geography Specification B. It takes a visual approach and gives clear explanations. Sample questions are provided. The book stresses the importance of assessing information, evaluating opinions, and comparing alternative scenarios. Pages are easy to use, with concise text and many maps, graphs, charts, and diagrams. Key concepts, processes, and issues are identified, and concise case studies and examples are included.

These highly successful revision guides have been brought right up-to-date for the new A Level specifications introduced in September 2000. "Oxford Revision Guides" are highly effective for both individual revision and classroom summary work. The unique visual format makes the key concepts and processes, and the links between them, easier to memorize. Students will save valuable revision time by using these notes instead of condensing their own. In fact, many students are choosing to buy their own copies so that they can colour code or highlight them as they might do with their own revision notes.
