There is now a better overlap with A-level Biology thanks to Angela Hall of the Salters-Nuffield Advanced Biology project. We are also grateful to Kamil Aliss, Andrew Hunt, and Douglas Snowden for their advice on the new edition which you can download from this page. The editor is Alan Furse.
The Longman publication is still available. Ring Longman on 0800 579 579 or email de-order@pearsoned-ema.com , quoting ISBN 0 582 23349 6
The Edexcel specification for Chemistry (Nuffield) has not changed, and you can use either edition as you study for the summer 2006 exam.
