What people say...

“

Wow! This is certainly the most comprehensive and useful book out there for A Level OCR Computing.  I will be purchasing a class set for year 12 and 13.

As someone who has marked exams regularly moderates for the exam board, it is even more apparent to me how important this type of resource is. Additionally, with an ever-burgeoning amount of theory to teach, there is just not the time to produce such high-quality materials.
