“The book is expertly written with up-to-date and classic studies used to support theories and arguments. The pupils have found the content to be easy to follow and the book has allowed me to use innovative tasks to plan exciting lessons. I have been waiting a long time to find a textbook that signposts the keys skills such as applying knowledge; using examples and making comparisons with other aspects of the course. The authors of this inspiring book have done this with aplomb. It is without reservation that I recommend the book to both experienced and inexperienced teachers. A must buy!”
