Full Description
A range of textbooks for AS and A level Pre 2008 specification. This title was developed specifically for the new specifications for A Level for teaching from September 2000. It is endorsed by OCR, and in conjunction with the other texts in the Cambridge Advanced Sciences series it provides complete coverage of the OCR biology specification A. Mammalian Physiology and Behaviour contains all the necessary material to accompany the optional A2 biology module of the same name. Self-assessment questions (with answers) and exam-style end-of-chapter exercises offer excellent opportunities for independent study. Chapter introductions and summaries provide the basis for structured revision. Student-friendly design and illustrations throughout make the science accessible to all.
