Nuffield Advanced Biology: Course Guide

This Nuffield Foundation Course Guide was written to give a chapter by chapter breakdown of the Nuffield A-level and AS-level Biology specifications as they were in the 1990s following the introduction of GCSE and the growth of double-award science programmes. The purpose of the course guide was to help students and teachers plan their route through the courses. Also included were comprehensive bibliographic references and indications of the basic knowledge required by students before they tackle each topic. The final section of the book provided a thorough review of the Nuffield examinations for both students and teachers. The book covered styles of question and gave examples of good answers with tips on what the examiners required from the answers.
