Essential for ALL drivers - not just learners
I am a driving instructor and I insist that all my pupils get and use this book. If you have been driving for years you should read through it to see just how many things have changed but especially read Chapter 10 - Defensive Driving. If most people drove this way all the time there would be far fewer deaths and injuries on the roads!

If you are a learner driver or intending to start learning grab it now if you don't have it and treat it as your bible for learning to pass your test and continuing on to a life of safe driving. Read up on the topic you are going to cover with your instructor before the next lesson and you will be amazed at how much more you get from the time with your instructor. That's what I call great value for money!

All driving topics are covered and the layout of the book makes it easy to read. I would recommend it as a gift for any driver if you're stuck for ideas. It could prevent a future accident!

The Essential Skills
i bought this book on the recommendation of my instructor. it's clear, conscise and practical. as somene who is learnong to drive without the aid of anyone but my instructor (my choice, too many people knowing just makes me nervous!) it's perfect to pick up after a lesson and revise what i've just done. the older version my instructor had more diagrams than this primarily photo-based version, explaining the four stars but it is essential nonetheless.

Driving ; The Essential Skills
This is a great book for anyone learning to drive or brushing up on your driving skills. It is a comprehensive guide for beginers and will take you through from the start to your test and is very useful for pass plus also. It is an essential book for all driving instructors too.
