Customer Reviews

Best A-level Business Studies book ever? I think so!
I used this book last year for my A2 level Business Studies exam and was highly impressed! I had been using the Anderton one all year, and only discovered this one when I was revising for the subject; something I regretted because it really does make the subject a hell of a lot more interesting.

There are case studies throughout, with loads of little colourful pictures etc, which really do help with revision. Everything is very clear and thoroughly explained, but the sheer size may put people off. Don't be fooled though, there is a lot of information, but it's written very well so you won't mind reading the extra pages, and the sheer amount of extra information (case studies/ pictures etc) means there's actually less pure reading that there would first appear.

In all, I'd say any AQA business studies student should buy this; along with a little bit of work, you should definitely be able to get a good grade with this book :D

Fantastic
I'm doing a Business Studies A-level with AQA and this book has been fantastic for it. I started off using a different book with Ian Marcouse and a few other people but it went into too much detail in the wrong places.

This book provides a great level of detail and interesting real life examples. Also the questions at the end of each chapter are great for revision.

Highly recommended for anybody studying Business Studies at A-level
