Summary: A classic case of dumbing down
Comment: This is one of a series of books that is written especially for the 'new' AS and A2 exams.Whilst the book has its uses as a reference guide, it really does show how badly A levels have been dumb downed. Interpretations are simplistic, tables of historiography are included so that students don't even have to read other books and complex arguments are bullet pointed to such an extent that this is really just a glorified GCSE textbook. In addition, the book is littered with inaccuracies. Please avoid.

Summary: The Cold War by Phillips
Comment: This book is a great help to those understanding the aspects for the first time. The side headings make it easy reading. However, perhaps other books are needed if you are studying for your A-levels because there is not enough depth.
