• AS 5: Material Science

The full-colour, illustrated chapters clearly explain the theory for the course, and are supported by worked examples, tips, examination-style questions and answers.

The authors are all experienced science teachers and examiners and the book has been through a meticulous quality assurance process prior to publication.
