- Provides clear and comprehensive coverage of the specification with each section of the book matching a unit of the new syllabus and each chapter corresponding to a content area

- Supports the 'researching physics' section in an appendix, covering key skills required by physics students and deals with data analysis, what can reasonably be inferred and what cannot, how we arrive at conclusions and what those conclusions mean
