Ensure that students are prepared for every aspect of their Higher Physics assessment with the only textbook that offers comprehensive coverage of the updated SQA syllabus requirements.


- 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

- Helps students to prepare for exams: each chapter contains examples of numerical, open ended and discursive type questions and combines strong coverage of essential Physics for Higher with new material and innovative teaching approaches
