Help yourself to algebra, by Hugh Neil, Longman
Lack of confidence and fluency in algebra manipulation has been
identified as the root cause of many of the problems faced by students starting
A Level maths. This series is designed to address these problems by providing a
supplementary resource for practising specific areas of mathematics, helping
students to reinforce and consolidate techniques learnt in class. This volume
is designed for students starting their A Level studies and bridges the gap
between GCSE and A Level.

 Revise AS: Maths,
Letts
"I've been doing AS Level maths for about 2 months now and have
just bought this book. I would definitely recommend it to anyone else taking
the course. It covers topics for every exam board and has a useful guide at the
beginning of the book telling you which topics you need to revise for each
board. I've found it very useful for explaining problems that I haven't been
able to solve with my class textbook, and is definitely indispensable to
me!"

 AS Level in a Week, Letts
aims to offer
a timed revision programme to ensure the student's revision remains focused on
exactly what they need to know. It is colour coded throughout to provide clear
structure to the revision course and should be useful for time-pressed students
working to tight deadlines.
