My Review

This is the book I’ve been waiting for since I discovered Biology for the IB Diploma by C.J Clegg last year. As per my review for the Biology book from the same publisher, I expect this book to be equally amazing. I’ve pre-ordered it and am counting down the days to its release!

The Biology book is everything one could want or need for their studies, and I expect this book to be exactly the same, if not better. I’ll provide a full review when I receive the book and have used it for a couple of weeks to get a good feel for it.

The book is available for a 25% discounted price of £24.38 in the UK, and for those of you not living in the UK, you can order for the same price.

My Review

I am also waiting for this book to be delivered! I will write up my review it when it gets here. Take a look at the Sample Chapters and you’ll see why I’ve ordered it! I really like the Heinemann IB Books! Feel free to submit a review yourself if you have the book!

I’ve had this book for a few months now and feel it’s time to submit a review for it! It’s a very good book, everything is very clearly laid out and easy to take in. There are diagrams, tables and also little boxes throughout the book that prompt thought in the areas of Theory of Knowledge (Very useful for the ToK essay and ToK presentation).

Overall, I think that Heinemann / Pearson have done it again, producing a very high quality book that will be sure to help you through your IB Chemistry studies!

You can download these two sample chapters from the book, provided by Heinemann.
Chaper One
Chaper Four

Unfortunately, Heinemann / Pearson have taken the sample chapters down off of their website, I will update the above links should they re publish the sample chapters.

My Review

This book is due to be released within the next couple of weeks.

This book has been a long time coming! I own the standard level version on this book and it is fantastic! If this higher level book is anything like the standard level book (I’m very sure of this) then it’s going to be a very useful book with lots of great diagrams and a fantastic breakdown of content!

This book is available for £37.99 and is currently available to preorder until the release in the first week of September 2009 when it will be available for immediate dispatch. This maybe be a little more expensive than the other books, but it is sure to be a good investment into securing a very good grade for IB Chemistry, Higher.

My Review

I’ve heard some good things about this book from friends. I don’t take Chemistry as a subject so I am not able to review it! But I can imagine that this book will be just as great as the other books published by the Oxford University Press! I will try and get a friend that takes Chemistry to review this book, but for now it is up to you to review this book! You can review the book by using the comment system.

This book is available for around £19 or $38.
