5.0 out of 5 stars Very useful for students

A useful handbook and it is a shame it hasn't been updated and republished by the Open University. I bought it for the maths exercises but there are also lots of useful hints and tips for all science students.

I made the mistake of giving this book to charity whilst I was having a break from studying. I got it when doing one of the old Openings science courses through the OU. Now I'm going back to study another course with them so have ordered another copy. The Maths section has a lot of very good examples of long forgotten techniques that I found myself referring to several times. Well worth getting a copy if you're going to do maths/science studying!

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing book if you're planning on studying any science course ...

An amazing book if you're planning on studying any science course or module at undergraduate level.
It covers everything from the scientific method, to scientific notation, and also teaches the various skills required for analysing scientific texts and papers. I was about to Physics and Environmental Science when I purchase this, and found it a really big help for improving my study and revision techniques.

4.0 out of 5 stars Useful and quick to read and to refer to
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 October 2013

I read this in an afternoon, skipping through the more wordy example sections, and concentrating on the highlighted bullet-point text boxes. As a mature student, most of what this book advises is self-evident, but there are some interesting and useful points which were either new to me or needed reinforcing.
