Over-complicated April 19, 2008
I found this book made geographical ideas more complicated which obviously is not what I bought the book for! I ended up buying another revision book (bbc bitesize) which was much easier to understand and use.
Also the jokes in this are awful!

Another CGP star August 2, 2007

This is another great revision guide from CGP - full of light-hearted 'jokes' and puns that help to keep you going. As usual there is focus on what you really need to know, which helps if you have a geography teacher like mine who is in love with the subject and thinks we all are too, and also thinks he is preparing us all for doign a geography degree... The clear diagrams are great for understanding key ideas, and the cartoons help you remember stuff as well as being fun. The revision summaries are good for checking that you have absorbed everything. The only downside really is that only parts of the guide are relevant to my course - edexel A - so you have to keep checking whether you need to know that bit or not. But it is SOOO much clearer and easier to understand than the edexel textbook and revision book school gave me (Tomorrow's Geography) it's well worth it.

Better books out there January 4, 2007
4 out of 5 found this review helpful

I bought this book along with Physics, Chemistry and Biology (which are amazing by the way) hoping that it would cut down a lot on faffing about during revision. While this would have been the case had i gone along with it, I found that this book is mising *so* much. Sure, it covers the gist of pretty much everything, but with a finickety (or at last, finickety for getting good marks in exams) subject like Geography, a revision guide or textbook needs to be comprehensive as well as concise (ok, somewhat of an oxymoron, but as you'll find out later it's not too much to ask). Case studies come up in the form of big mark questions on the exam and this book doesn't really provide any. Granted, there are lots of different syllabus' and its pretty tough for any one book to cover all of them without being the size of a hippopotamus. A book I would reccomend, however, is Understanding GCSE Geography by Heineman - particularly good for me as this is tailored to the specification A AQA course (which, surprise surprise is the one I'm doing). So, in short, my point is, save you tenner and don't get this book: buy one thats tailored to your course.

Surprisingly Good May 8, 2005

I am currently studying for GCSE Geography and buying this book has summarised all that I need to know in adequate detail. The jokes are not good. The information includes examples of areas which are essential for the main exam.

I am using this book to help me through my GCSE Geography and so far I have found that this book has been very helpful. It is well set out and makes revision more interesting !! (even if the jokes are poor !)
