Physics in Focus

by M. W. Brimicombe

Published 15 February 1990
This book provides complete coverage of all the areas of physics mentioned in GCE A-level syllabuses and similar courses. A graduated approach has been adopted which will ease the transition from physics or "broad-and-balanced" science at GCSE to the narrower and more in-depth style of A-level and similar syllabuses. Features of the book include interest boxes presenting applications of physics in everyday contexts, extension material for the more advanced student, questions and "learning objectives" at the end of each topic to help staff and students to monitor progress, and concise summaries at the end of each section to help the student prepare for the actual examination.
